1. GESTION STRATEGIQUE DES NUTRIMENTS POUR L’AMELIORATION DU RENDEMENT ET DE LA PROFITABILITE ECONOMIQUE DU GOMBO (Abelmoschus esculentus L.) SUR LES SOLS FERRALITIQUES AU SUD TOGODes stratégies efficientes de gestion des nutriments sont indispensables pour une production agricole améliorée et durable. La performance du gombo (Abelmoschus esculentus L.) a été évaluée sous cinq approches de fertilisation dans un cycle de deux cultures successives à la Station d’expérimentations agronomiques de l’Ecole Supérieure d’Agronomie de l’Université de Lomé (SEA/ESA/UL),...

2. Spatial variability and mapping of selected soil quality indicators for precision farming at a smallholding level in Minna, NigeriaSmallholding farmers in Nigeria still practice blanket application of fertilizers, without giving consideration to spatial variations in soil properties across their fields. Understanding of spatial variability in soil properties is essential for precision farming, especially in this era of resource scarcity and high cost of fertilizers. This study was carried out to assess and map the spatial variability in selected soil quality indicators in a smallholder farm in Minna, North-central Nigeria,... B. Lawal, M.K. Adeboye, P.A. Tsado |
3. Evaluation of on –farm oil palm yield parameters in Niger Delta region of NigeriaEvaluation of on –farm oil palm yield parameters in Niger Delta region of Nigeria *Ekhator F1., Osayande P1., Aduramigba-Modupe V.O2., Solomon O1., and Ikuenobe C.E1. 1Nigerian Institute for Oil Palm Research (NIFOR) P.M.B 1030, Benin City, Edo State 2Institute of Agricultural Research and Training, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ibadan, Oyo...

4. Performance agronomique et économique de différentes stratégies de gestion de la fertilité du sol sous culture de soja (Glycine max L. Merril) dans la zone littorale du Togo.Ce travail a pour objectif de valoriser les émondes de deux légumineuses arbustives et quelques fertilisants organiques pour améliorer la production du soja. Afin de parvenir à cet objectif, les paramètres comme la masse de mille graines, les rendements en gousses, en graines, en fanes du soja et autres ont été déterminés. L’étude a eu lieu à la Station d’Expérimentation Agronomique de Lomé (SEAL)... K.M. Amouzouvi, K.E. Ozou, L. Kolani, K.A. Amouzouvi, J.M. Sogbedji |
5. Soil organic carbon mapping in Tunisia: comparison of different interpolation methodsSoil organic carbon (SOC) stock is an important carbon pool in terrestrial ecosystems. It plays an important role in agricultural productivity and is often used as a key indicator of soil quality whether for soil fertility or climate regulation. SOC stocks are difficult to estimate due to the large spatial variability. In this way, many different techniques have been conducted for predicting and mapping SOC content. However, although numerous techniques are in use, there is still debate on which... M. Barbouchi, H. Bahri, A. Souissi, H. Cheikh m'hamed, M. Annabi |
6. Development, validation and dissemination of a soil tool kit for site specific soil health assessmentSmallholder farmers, extension and partners in agricultural development have limited access to analytical laboratories due to high costs and remote locations. Yet, it is very important to assess soil health and provide farmers with context specific options to increase crop yields and soil fertility. The goal of the project was to develop, validate and disseminate a soil tool kit that that uses minimum reagents to provide site-specific soil quality measures in/near field to inform farmer decisions...

7. Public Financing in Agricultural Research Development and Rural Poverty Alleviation: Evidence from West African Economic and Monetary Union StatesThe paper examines the effects of public financing for agricultural research and development on rural poverty based on the variable farm income in the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) States. To conduct this analysis, a dynamic panel comprising seven (07) WAEMU States has been built based on secondary data from World Bank, African Development Bank (AfDB) and Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) databases for the period 2000 to 2016. To correct the endogeneity generated by... O. Dah, T. Bassolet |

9. Optimizing Durum Wheat Nitrogen Nutrition Index (NNI) Prediction Through Sentinel-2 Vegetation Index IntegrationNitrogen is crucial for durum wheat growth and productivity, but excess or insufficient levels can harm both the environment and farmers' finances. Remote sensing offers rapid, cost-effective, and nondestructive ways to assess crop nutrition, with vegetation indices (VIs) indicating plant health. This study aims to enhance the accuracy of durum wheat nitrogen status prediction by investigating modified formulations of Nitrogen Nutrition Index (NNI) coupled with various vegetation indices (VIs),...
