Presents the concept and procedure followed to develop an appropriate technology to increase productivity on Vertisols (heavy clay soils) in Ethiopia. Describes the Vertisol farming systems in the Ethiopian highlands and discusses the on-farm technology validation process. Examines yields of majo...


Asamenew, G.Mohamed-Saleem, M.A.[Concepts and procedures for the Development of improved Vertisol technology Development in Ethiopia]Concepts and procedures for the Development of improved Vertisol technology Development in Ethiopia

Since 1986 the Joint Vertisol Project (JVP) which involved a number of national and international research and Development institutions in Ethiopia gave high priority to developing alternative management practices for increased and sustainable food and feed production in highland vertisols. The J...
