Hill placement of manure and fertilizer micro-dosing improves yield and water use efficiency in the Sahelian low input millet-based cropping system
tInadequate nutrient supply and insufficient rainfall are the most important limiting factors for crop pro-duction in the Sahelian agro-ecological zones. Targeted technology application may help to improvethe efficient use ...
Determinants of fertilizer microdose-induced yield increment of pearl millet on an acid sandy soil.
Recent studies have reported the benefits of fertilizer microdosing in increasing crop yields in low input
cropping systems. Little information is however available on the mechanisms underlying this effect.
The objective ...
Integrated use of fertilizer micro-dosing and Acacia tumida mulching increases millet yield and water use efficiency in Sahelian semi-arid environment
Limited availability of soil organic amendments and unpredictable rainfall, decrease crop yields drastically in the Sahel. There is, therefore, a need to develop an improved technology for conserving soil moisture and ...
