Assessment of farmers' view on the current use of manure around Holetta Agric.Res. Center by Kumsa, T., Madsen, J.O., Tegegne, Azage

“…Eleven percent only contended manure use must be confined to fertilizer utilization while about 16 percent underlined the importance of both functions and noted sharing manure between these two uses is a judicious act.

Biological control: a major component for the longterm cowpea pest management strategy by Tamò, Manuele, Srinivasan, R., Dannou, E.A., Agboton, C., Datinon, B., Dabiré, C., Baoua, I., Ba, Malick N., Haruna, B., Pittendrigh, Barry Robert

“…Because very often these management options alone cannot provide adequate control, curative measures need to be taken, which include augmentative and inundative biological control, the application of biopesticides, and the judicious use of synthetic pesticides. Using synthetic pesticides as the first line of defense against insect pests is not considered a sustainable component of a long-term management strategy for various reasons, but mainly because of human and environmental health considerations. …”

Profitability of diammonium phosphate use in bush and climbing bean-maize rotations in smallholder farms of Central Burundi by Niyuhire, M.C., Pypers, Pieter, Vanlauwe, Bernard, Nziguheba, Generose, Roobroeck, D., Merckx, Roel

“…This study confirms the need for integrated soil fertility management (ISFM), and that a combination of judicious fertilizer use, an improved grain legume (climbing bean) and adjustment to local conditions (targeting to responsive soils) maximizes economic returns of legume-cereal rotation systems.…”

“That is my farm” – an integrated co-learning approach for whole-farm sustainable intensification in smallholder farming by Marinus, W., Descheemaeker, Katrien K., Ven, G.W. van de, Waswa, W., Mukalama, J., Vanlauwe, Bernard, Giller, Kenneth E.

“…Soil fertility gradients was such a concept through which judicious use of fertilizers was discussed. After five seasons, co-learning farmers had a more diverse and cohesive knowledge of their farm than comparison farmers. …”

Building back fairer from the Covid-19 pandemic in South Africa: Some first step reforms in an era of fiscal constraints by Arndt, Channing, Davies, Robert J., Gabriel, Sherwin, Harris, Laurence, Sachs, Michael, van Seventer, Dirk Ernst

“…In this optic, we recommend consideration of a focus of reform in the near term on favorable dryland areas that can be equipped with supplemental irrigation, with the goal of permitting these areas to specialize in higher value products. Judicious water resource use planning must accompany this policy. …”

Approaches to reinforce crop productivity under rain-fed conditions in sub-humid environments in Sub-Saharan Africa by Chikowo, Regis, Zingore, Shamie, Nyamangara, Justice, Bekunda, Mateete A., Messina, Joseph, Snapp, Sieglinde S.

“…With little opportunity for supplementary irrigation for the majority of farmers, a plausible strategy to maintain crop production under water-limited conditions includes balanced nutrient management for enhancing efficiency of use of limited soil water. Co-application of judicious rates of organic and mineral nutrient resources, particularly including the use of phosphorus (P) on P-limited soils, will facilitate development of an extensive crop rooting system for efficient exploration and capture of soil water, especially at a depth >0.8 m. …”
