Impact of reduced tillage and crop residue management on soil properties and crop yields in a long-term trial in western Kenya
Sustainable farming practices are required to address the persistent problems of land degradation and declining crop productivity in Sub-Saharan Africa. Approaches such as reducing tillage and retaining crop residues as mulch are potential entry points for smallholder farmers to move towards sustain...
