1. Engaging Stakeholders in Precision Agriculture Toolbox Conception: Case of Cowpea Atlas Platform Establishment in Benin RepublicCowpea [(Vigna Unguiculata (L.) Walpers] is among the most preferred and consumed legumes in West Africa and grown by many smallholder farmers. The crop has huge potential, is easy to grow and constitute a source of income of many actors involved in different value chains. Unfortunately, despite many interventions which aimed at promoting the crop in West Africa mainly Benin, areas under cowpea crop decrease over the years along with the loss of cowpea-based products. Such problem is... N.V. Fassinou Hotegni, Y.L. Godonou, L.M. Gnanglè, O.N. Coulibaly, E.G. Achigan-dako |
2. Predicting the Distribution of Groundnut Phytopathogens Under Current and Future Climatic Scenarios in ZimbabweGroundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an important oil crop with immense nutritional and economic benefits, but its productivity in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is threatened by a plethora of phytopathogens such as groundnut rosette virus, Alternaria leafspots, early leafspots and peanut rust. In Zimbabwe, ecological niches and epidemiology of these pathogenic microbial strains, particularly under the current and predicted climate change scenarios, are still poorly understood. Yet, this information... H. Chinwa, C.N. Kamutando |
