Integrated pest management (IPM) has been widely promoted in the developing world, but in many regions its adoption rates have been variable. Experience has shown that to ensure IPM adoption, the complexities of local agro-production systems and context-specific folk knowledge need to be apprecia...

To guide soil fertility investment programmes in sub-Saharan Africa, better understanding is needed of the relative importance of soil and crop management factors in determining smallholder crop yields and yield variability. Spatial variability in crop yields within farms is strongly influenced b...

Los recientes cambios en los sistemas de producción de maíz (Zea mays L.), incluyendo siembras escalonadas y continúas del cultivo en Colombia, han incrementado la incidencia de algunas enfermedades, entre las que se destaca el mosaico de la caña de azúcar (SCMV). Estudios de varios investigadore...

Se planteó un ensayo de campo para evaluar los efectos acumulados de la fertilización y la labranza en el cultivo de maíz y en pastos sin carga animal. Se evaluaron cambios en parámetros químicos y físicos del suelo en el primer centímetro de suelo de parcelas que se establecieron en 1995 en la f...

Two sets of on-farm trials, each covering two years, were conducted in the northern Guinea savannah of Nigeria over the period 1999–2001, the objective being to compare integrated Striga hermonthica control measures (soybean or cowpea trap crops followed by maize resistant to Striga) with farmers...

Two crop rotation cycles were evaluated to determine the effect of cropping systems and N fertilization on the yield and efficiency of N in maize. Maize was grown on plots which had previously supported monocrops of two genotypes each of soybean (TGx 1448-2E and SAMSOY-2) and cowpea (IT 96D-724 a...
