Minimum tillage and vegetative barrier effects on crop yields in relation to soil water content in the Central Kenya highlands
The sub-humid zone of Central Kenya is water deficient due to regular intra-seasonal dry spells that constrain rain-fed crop production. A study was initiated to investigate the effects of minimum tillage and vegetative barriers on soil and water conservation and crop yield. There were two tillage p...
