Despite the recent release of several improved varieties of groundnut in Nigeria the productivities have not increase significantly due to lack of commensurate recommendation in agronomic practices. Two groundnut varieties were evaluated for their response to different plant density and phosphoru...

Groundnut production in northeast Nigeria is constrained by low level of soil phosphorus. This study evaluated four groundnut varieties for their response to P fertilization in two Nigerian agro-ecological zones (Sudan and Northern Guinea savanna) during 2005 and 2006. The experimental design was...

Field trials were carried out in M'Vuazi, Bas Zaire, to test the response of groundnuts (cv P43), planted sole or intercropped with cassava (cv Kinuani), to lime application. Groundnuts responded significantly to low rates of lime (250-500 kg ha-1). Maximum cost, benefit ratio of 1:7 was obtained...

Groundnut haulm has a great value as feed stock in the semi-arid tropics. Two-hundred-two and 194 cultivars of groundnut grown under intermittent water stress and fully irrigated treatment for two consecutive years at ICRISAT (2008/2009 and 2009/2010) in Patancheru in India were investigated for ...

Geoengineering has been proposed to stabilize global temperature, but its impacts on crop production and stability are not fully understood. A few case studies suggest that certain crops are likely to benefit from solar dimming geoengineering, yet we show that geoengineering is projected to have ...

Sweetpotato yield is adversely affected by poor soil fertility in Mozambique where access to inorganic fertilisers is lacking. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of intercropping sweetpotato with groundnut and soybean at various phosphorus (P) fertilisation levels on the...

Climate change has a number of observed, anticipated, or possible consequences on crop health worldwide. Global change, on the other hand, incorporates a number of drivers of change, including global population increase, natural resource evolution, and supply demand shifts in markets, from local ...
