1. Soil fertility mapping of Dry savannah zone of TogoIncreasing agricultural productivity and therefore the production requires a good knowledge of the soil fertility status and a sustainable nutrients management. The objective of this study is to map spatial distribution of some selected soil fertility parameters in the dry savannah agro-ecological zone that covers the regions of Savanes and Kara in Togo. Soil fertility parameters such as pH, available phosphorus (P), exchangeable potassium (K) and organic matter were determined in soil samples... K.K. Ganyo, K.A. Ablede , K. Koudjega, S. Ani, K.

2. Determining Nutrients rates for Maize, Rice, Cotton, and Tomato in Dry Savannah zone of Togo based on site specific nutrient management approachInadequate fertilizer application limits crop yields and lead to the soil fertility depletion. This study aims at formulating nutrients rates recommendations for main the crops in dry savannah zone of Togo. Site specific nutrient management approach based on spatial variations in nutrients status, crops nutrients requirement and average crop yields under field conditions was used to determine recommendations rates in N, P and K. For maize cropping, nutrients needs are 94 kgN.ha-1, 42... |
3. Potentials of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for the Nigerian AgricultureThe continuous development of technology is driving the invention of new machineries such as the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), also known as “drones”. The UAVs have become much more popular within the last decade for its significant roles in agriculture among other industries, yet their applications in Nigeria are yet to be appreciated. Therefore, the present study reviewed the characteristics and multiple uses of UAVs in agriculture and their potentials for the Nigerian... M. Kabir, S. Ekici |
