Do commercial biological and chemical products increase crop yields and economic returns under smallholder farmer conditions?
During recent decennia, new commercial products have appeared on the market as alternatives to common fertilizers. While some of these products are based on well-established technologies, such as rhizobium inoculation, others have not been subjected to scientific scrutiny. During 3 years, we evaluat...
