Participatory conservation tillage research: An experience with minimum tillage on an Ethiopian highland Vertisol por Astatke, A., Jabbar, M.A., Tanner, D.

“…Farmer adoption of a minimum tillage production system increased the gross margin of wheat production by US$ 132 per hectare—based on 1999 prices—relative to the traditional flat seedbed system. The minimum tillage system was characterized by a much lower level of soil manipulation relative to the traditional flat seedbed system, and, as a consequence, markedly reduced the total human labor and draft oxen requirements for wheat production. …”

Monitoreo de las plantas de secado por Bode, P.

“…Three parameters are proposed to express social impact: (1) an absolute social impact, which is the relationship between the total benefits generated by the project and investment costs; (2) a relative social impact, which indicates the no. of beneficiaries of the project relative to the distribution of benefits towards the poorer sectors of the population; and (3) a social impact indicator, which combines the former parameters and allows plant classification according to the impact obtained. …”
