Farmers perceptions of practices and constraints in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) chips production in rural Cameroon by Essono , G.G., Ayodele, M., Foko, J., Akoa, A., Gockowski, J., Ambang, Z., Bell, J.M., Bekolo, N.

“…These were related to insufficient drying (42%), the use of infected cassava roots by plant pathogenic microbes from the fields (12%), or too long drying of chips under sun light (11% of responses). To avoid dark spots andor discolouration, 112 farmers out of a total of 185 who were aware about chips damage, practiced sundrying, and 21% of this total dried their chips over the fireplace to control chips damage. …”

The Phenology of Coffea arabica var. Esperanza L4A5 Under Different Agroforestry Associations and Fertilization Conditions in the Caribbean Region of Costa Rica by Morales Peña, Victor Hugo, Mora Garcés, Argenis, Virginio Filho, Elias de Melo, Villatoro Sánchez, Mario, Pazmiño Pachay, Willy William, Chanto Ares, Esteban

“…To establish a baseline on the phenological behavior of the Esperanza L4A5 hybrid in this region, we conducted a four-year study examining the effects of different agroforestry associations: (1) Albizia saman; (2) Hymenaea courbaril and Erythrina poeppigiana; (3) Anacardium excelsum and Erythrina poeppigiana; and coffee plots under full sun. Additionally, the phenology of the coffee plants was evaluated under differentiated fertilizations (physical, chemical, and without fertilization), considering meteorological factors such as temperature, humidity, and rainfall. …”
