1. VALIDATION OF CLIMATE SMART AGRICULTURAL TECHNOLOGIES FOR IMPROVED CROP YIELDS IN SEMI-ARID LANDS IN KENYAKenya’s Vision 2030 economic strategy identifies agriculture as one of the key sectors to drive the Country’s economy. However, the agricultural sector faces various challenges. For instance, the sector is predominantly rain-fed due large coverage of arid and semi-arid lands (ASALs) which is approximately 84% of the total land area. Due to challenges associated with rain-fed agriculture in Kenya, the ASALs have the lowest development indicators and the highest incidence of... A.O. Esilaba |
2. Evaluating Soil Organic Matter Under a No-Till System Using Digital Sensors (EM38 and MSP3)Agriculture, especially in no-till systems, plays a crucial role in ensuring global food security. The pressure on agricultural lands due to a growing population and climate change necessitates innovative solutions. Proximal soil sensing using electromagnetic induction (EMI) and electrical conductivity (ECa) sensors has gained prominence. These technologies provide rapid, non-destructive measurements of soil properties, offering advantages over remote sensing and laboratory analyses.... H. Hajjaj, K. Ibno namr, E. Abdellah , C.

3. Use of “FertiEdge” Application for Optimizing Wheat FertilizationWheat is a crop of global importance, and effective fertilization is crucial to maximize yield and quality. Traditional methods of fertilization often result in under- or over-application of nutrients, resulting in environmental problems and suboptimal crop yields. FertiEdge is a digital application that provides accurate fertilization recommendations based on real-time data, it’s an innovative tool designed to enhance the efficiency of wheat fertilization. This study evaluates its impact... I. Sbai, F. Sehbaoui, M. Hmimou |
