This is a comprehensive literature review of land restoration activities in West Africa Sahel.
Water constraints and the inherent soil poverty are the major factors that limit crop yields and productivity of cropping systems ...
Training on Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration
This formation is part of research and scaling-out activities of the CCAFS regarding the Regeneration Naturally Assisted. A diagnostic made during the campaign, which took place between 2014 and 2015, has highlighted tthe ...
Provenance variation in seed- and seedling-related traits in survival, growth and dry matter partitioning of Sclerocarya birrea subsp. caffra, a potential agroforestry species, in response to water stress
Many wild plant food resources are eaten across Africa in addition to the more commonly known agricultural food (Mojeremane and Tshweenyane, 2004). The significance that edible wild indigenous plants make to the diets of ...
Expanding networks of field hedges in densely populated landscapes in the Sahel
Changing woody plant density across agricultural landscapes of the Sudano-Sahelian region is a debated issue. This paper reports the results of an investigation on the contribution of field hedges to overall woody plant ...
Provenance variation in seed- and seedling-related traits in survival, growth and dry matter partitioning of Sclerocarya birrea subsp. caffra, a potential agroforestry species, in response to water stress
The present document consists of a statistic on provenance variation in seedling and seedling-related traits in survival, growth and dry matter partitioning of Sclerocarya birrea subsp. caffra, a potential agroforestry ...
Floristic diversity of Piliostigma asssociations in relation to latitudinal gradient, soil and climate variables in Burkina Faso, West Africa
We examined the floristic composition and its relationship with environmental
factors across 80 floristic relevés of Piliostigma stands distributed along a north-south gradient
in Burkina Faso. Various diversity indices ...
