1. Digital platforms for boosting farmer knowledge: Two case studies in Kenya and Uganda Approximately 80% of all farms in Africa, or 33 million farms, are two hectares or less in size. Many of these smallholder farmers do not have access to resources, including extension services, to improve their farms. Lack of knowledge of Good Agronomic Practices (GAPs) causes farmers to fail to reach their full yield potential. Extension workers responsible to provide these GAPs to farmers are spread thin. For example, as of March of 2019, there was one extension worker for every 1,800 coffee... E. Bakirdjian, T. Harigaya, M. Osia, J. Zhu, J. Abuli Download paper
2. LAND DEGRADATON RISK ASSESSMENT AT A SITE IN AFIJIO LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA OF OYO STATE, NIGERIA Soils are considered non –renewable and it is a limited resource therefore the continuous use of land without appropriate management practices leads to land degradation in the long run. Land degradation is the decline in soil quality caused by natural factors or, more often, by improper use/management usually for agricultural, pastoral or urban purposes. This study aims to map the soils while also assessing the state of land degradation in Afijio Local government area of Oyo state. The study...
