The potential benefits and trade-offs of using sub-surface water retention technology on coarse-textured soils: Impacts of water and nutrient saving on maize production and soil carbon sequestration

In Sub-Saharan Africa, several smallholder communities continuously grapple with soil-based poverty as the coarse-textured soils on which they eke out a living have low water and nutrient retention capacities. The new sub-surface water retention technology (SWRT), is based on the subsurface installa...
