Teutscherova, NikolaVazquez, EduardoArango, JacoboArévalo, AshlyBenito, MartaPulleman, Mirjam[Native arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi increase the abundance of ammoniaoxidizing bacteria, but suppress nitrous oxide emissions shortly after urea application]Native arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi increase the abundance of ammoniaoxidizing bacteria, but suppress nitrous oxide emissions shortly after urea application

Spatial distribution of soil nutrients is not normally considered for smallholder farms in Ghana resulting in blanket fertilizer application which leads to low efficiencies of some applied nutrients. This study focuses on applying geospatial analyses to map 120 maize farms in 16 districts of the ...


Antwi, M.Duker, A.A.Fosu, M.Abaidoo, R.C.[Geospatial approach to study the spatial distribution of major soil nutrients in the Northern region of Ghana]Geospatial approach to study the spatial distribution of major soil nutrients in the Northern region of Ghana

In most parts of West Africa, poverty contributes immensely to poor fertilizer adoption by smallholder farmers. Fertilizer adoption could be improved with micro-dosing technology. A socio-economic survey was conducted in the semi-deciduous forest zone of Ghana to assess the extent of fertilizer u...


Okebalama, C.B.Safo, E.Y.Yeboah, E.Abaidoo, R.C.Logah, V.[Fertilizer use and management practices among maize and cowpea smallholder farmers in Ghana]Fertilizer use and management practices among maize and cowpea smallholder farmers in Ghana

Banana is the most important food crop in Uganda. However, there has been a decline in productivity, attributed to declining soil fertility, drought, pests and diseases and crop management factors. This study aimed to explore the possibility of increasing yields through the use of fertilizer and ...


Wairegi, L.W.I.Asten, Piet J.A. van[The agronomic and economic benefits of fertilizer and mulch use in highland banana systems in Uganda]The agronomic and economic benefits of fertilizer and mulch use in highland banana systems in Uganda

Common bean and soybean yield poorly on smallholder farms in Rwanda. We evaluated the benefits of inoculation combined with P fertilizer and manure on yields of common bean and soybean in three agro-ecological zones (AEZs), and their residual effects on a subsequent maize crop. In the first seaso...


Rurangwa, E.Vanlauwe, BernardGiller, Ken E.[Benefits of inoculation, P fertilizer and manure on yields of common bean and soybean also increase yield of subsequent maize]Benefits of inoculation, P fertilizer and manure on yields of common bean and soybean also increase yield of subsequent maize

Soil nutrient depletion and Xanthomonas wilt (Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum) are major causes of declining productivity in smallholder banana systems in East and Central Africa. This study examined the interactive effect of fertilizer and inoculum concentration on development of Xanthomon...


Ochola, D.Ocimati, W.Tinzaara, W.Karamura, E.B.[Interactive effects of fertilizer and inoculum concentration on subsequent development of xanthomonas wilt in banana]Interactive effects of fertilizer and inoculum concentration on subsequent development of xanthomonas wilt in banana

Plantain (Musa spp.) is an important staple food and cash crop in West and Central Africa. It is highly susceptible to a complex of root and corm pests and diseases and yields are low. Farmers practice virtually no pest or disease control. A simple inexpensive method to clean suckers of most pest...

Bénin, like other countries in sub-Saharan Africa, has initiated programs to reform agricultural input and output markets. While the impact of the reform programs has been different for each country, it is commonly observed that impact at the farm level has been less than anticipated. A central t...


Kormawa, P.M.Munyemana, A.Soule, B.[Fertilizer market reforms and factors influencing fertilizer use by smallscale farmers in Benin]Fertilizer market reforms and factors influencing fertilizer use by smallscale farmers in Benin

The differential ability of genotypes of soybean (Glycine max) and cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) to thrive under low-phosphorus (P) conditions by utilising P from sources with low solubility was assessed in a greenhouse study with a low-P savanna soil collected from a research field in Fashola, sout...
