1. Tomato yield and economic performance under organic and mineral fertilizer applications in coastal TogoResearch efforts towards enhancing vegetables production are still needed in Togo. We assessed tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) yield and associated economic returns under three soil fertility management strategies in a 3-yr period study. Three tomato varieties were used including: MONGAL-F1 (V1), SUMO-F1 (V2) and COBRA 26-F1 (V3). The fertilization regimes were: no fertilizer application as the control (F1), application of 200 kg of N15P15K15 + 100... J.M. Sogbedji, M. Lare |
2. Comparative fertilization effects on maize productivity under conservation and conventional tillage on sandy soils in a smallholder cropping system in ZimbabweLow crop yields, food insecurity and abject rural poverty continue to be rampant in much of Southern Africa. Components of conservation agriculture (CA) are being widely promoted in southern Africa as one of the strategies to increase food security and mitigate rural poverty, despite there being scarce empirical evidence on their efficacy on degraded soils. This research aimed to assess the effects of tillage systems on maize grain yields under rain-fed conditions across a soil organic matter... R. Chikowo, S. Zingore, N. Kafesu |
3. Improving Phosphorus Use Efficiency by Chickpea Crop Using Electromagnetic Induction, Soil Properties, and Crop Yield Data Under Semi-arid ConditionsUnder arid and semi-arid conditions, the agricultural sector faces many challenges related to the use of water and mineral resources for crop production and food security for an exponentially growing population. The impact of climate changes on water resources availability and soil quality is more and more emphasized under the Mediterranean basin, mostly characterized by drought and extreme weather conditions. The present study aims to investigate how electromagnetic induction technique and soil... M. Chtouki, A. Oukarroum, F. Nguyen |
