Cassava-maize intercropping systems in southern Nigeria: radiation use efficiency, soil moisture dynamics, and yields of component crops por Nwokoro, C.C., Kreye, C., Necpalova, M., Adeyemi, O., Barthel, M., Pypers, P., Hauser, S., Six, Johan

“…Due to the popularity of cassava-maize intercropping and the food security and economic importance of both crops in Nigeria, we investigated options to improve interception of photosynthetically active radiation (IPAR), radiation use efficiency (RUE), soil moisture retention, and yields of cassava and maize in cassava-maize intercropping systems in 8 on-farm researcher-managed multi-location trials between 2017 and 2019 in different agro-ecologies of southern Nigeria. …”

Use of models for identification of nitrogen fertilization strategies for filling feeding gaps of cow-calf systems in the Flooding Pampas of Argentina por Berger, Horacio, Vogeler, Iris, Machado, Claudio F.

“…METHODS: An integrated modelling approach, combining a pasture model with a farm system beef cattle model, was employed. Various N fertilizer options (specifically, 100 kg N/ha applied in either autumn or spring) were allocated to 20 % and 40 % of farm areas, across stocking rates ranging from 0.9 to 1.3 head/ha. …”

Exploring opportunities for scaling of sustainable intensification interventions through farmer engagement and positive deviance approach a case for Basona Worena por Andreas, Daan

“…It was also shown that the adoption rate of the interventions did not differ significantly between the exemplary and sub-optimal dominated systems. The farm system modelling aspect provided an all-encompassing evaluation of farm performance across productivity, economic, and environmental dimensions. …”

Optimizing interaction between crop residues and inorganic N under zero tillage systems in sub-humid region of Kenya por Kinyua, Michael, Mucheru-Muna, Monicah, Bolo, Peter Omondi, Kihara, Job Maguta

“…This study investigated how different tillage practices, crop residues and inorganic nitrogen (N) options affect maize production, soil fertility and economics of smallholder farming systems. The study was conducted in a short-term (2 years) on-station trial, under randomized complete block design with three replications in a maize monocrop system. …”

Sustainable resource management coupled to resilient germplasm to provide new intensive cereal–grain–legume–livestock systems in the dry savanna por Sanginga, Nteranya, Dashiell, Kenton E., Diels, J., Vanlauwe, Bernard, Lyasse, O., Carsky, R.J., Tarawali, Shirley A., Asafo-Adjei, B., Menkir, A., Schulz, S., Singh, B.B., Chikoye, David, Keatinge, D., Ortíz, R.

“…Production in Nigeria was estimated at 405,000 t in 1999 compared to less than 60,000 t in 1984. Economic analysis of these systems shows already an increase of 50–70% in the gross incomes of adopting farmers compared to those still following the current practices, mainly continuous maize cultivation. …”
