Smallholder farmers in East-Africa commonly intercrop maize (Zea mays L.) with grain legumes to maximize utilisation of land and labour, and attain larger crop yields. Conventionally, one legume line is intercropped between each pair of maize lines. This study evaluated the potential of a modifie...

Manure is a key nutrient resource on smallholder farms in the tropics, especially on poorly buffered sandy soils, due to its multiple benefits for soil fertility. Farmers preferentially apply manure to fields closest to homesteads (homefields), which are more fertile than fields further away (out...

Multiple benefits of manure : The key to maintenance of soil fertility and restoration of depleted sandy soils on African smallholder farms
The paper reviews the available data and current activities on agronomic aspects of cassava in Thailand. These activities were carried out by various national research programs in collaboration with CIAT during 1990-1993. The review shows that the inherent fertility of cassava soils has been depl...

This book is another collaborative effort between CIAT and The Nippon Foundation to review and summarize the results of many years of research on cassava, especially that conducted in Asia by CIAT in collaboration with national programs in the various cassava-growing countries. [...] The main obj...
