Farmers nutrient management practices in indigenous cropping systems in southern Cameroon
With increasing population densities, food production needs to be increased. A common response of farmers is to shorten fallow periods, which can lead to a decline in crop yields, due to incomplete nutrient replenishment. However, whether farmers change their management of soil and nutrients accordi...
