Farming household types and their characterization in complex crop-livestock smallholder agricultural systems for contextual analysis and extension intervention: case of Riviridzi Catchment in Ntcheu
Typology of farming units (households and farms) is deemed essential for targeted research and development programs. We employ the sustainable livelihood framework to collect integrated dataset for household, landscape and ...
Farm type-specific determinants of crop productivity in Riviridzi catchment, Ntcheu Malawi
Closing the yield gap among the communities is seen as the step towards alleviating food insecurity and poverty. The casual effects of the actual yields observed in the study area shows that pooled analyses across farm ...
Orange-fleshed sweet potato an alternative for small-scale farmers trapped under Maize Poverty and climate variability
The project employs participatory approaches to draw scenarios for land use, institutional arrangements, and devising technologies for improving productivity and ecosystem health. Maize is a main staple food crop in the ...
Performance of Bush and Climbing beans under the prolonged drought in different Cropping Systems and Fertility Management Regimes in Linthipe and Kandeu, Malawi
Performance of Bush and Climbing beans under the prolonged drought in different Cropping Systems and Fertility Management Regimes in Linthipe and Kandeu, Malawi
Effect of best-bet sustainable land management technologies of minimum till, agroforestry shrubs and box ridges on yield of maize (SC403) in Nsipe, Malawi
Food insecurity is a serious challenge to most of the Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). In this region, production levels of small-scale farmers, who contribute a significant proportion of the maize produced, has been far much ...
Evaluation of Bush and Climbing Beans under different Cropping Systems and Nutrient Management Regimes in Linthipe and Kandeu, Malawi
Intensifying common bean cropping within maize based farming systems using ISFM framework
Livelihood type-specific determinants of household’s choices of land use and farm management practices, and crop productivity in Riviridzi catchment, Ntcheu Malawi
The study has found different impacts of socio-ecological factors on cropping, fertilizer use and soil and water conservation practices when analyses are done at whole sample or farm type specific. Household behaviour also ...
