1. SIMULATION OF CASSAVA YIELD UNDER DIFFERENT CLIMATIC SCENARIOS IN KILEMBWE, SOUTH-KIVU PROVINCE EASTERN DR CONGO

Climate variability and change are projected to significantly impact agricultural production across Africa. This study assessed the effects of climate variability and change on cassava yield in Kilembwe, South-Kivu province Eastern DR Congo. The assessment relies on the DSSAT crop model simulation of cassava under current and future climate. The period 1980–2010 was used to represent the baseline, while future projection covers three periods including the near future (2010–2039), mid-century... A.B. Yamungu, A. Egeru, M.J. Majaliwa, B.M.

2. Precision Nutrient Management for Cassava Production

Matching nutrient supplies with plant nutrient requirements is key to sustaining crop production while preserving the environment. However, fertilizer recommendations are either inexistent or provided as blanket rates in cassava production systems in sub-Saharan Africa. We studied the effects on cassava yield and profitability of site-specific fertilizer rates against farmer’s practices within the framework of the African Cassava Agronomy Initiative (ACAI) project in Nigeria and Tanzania.

3. A Synopsis of Water and Nutrient Requirements of Hass Avocado for Uganda and Sub-saharan Africa Practitioners

Hass avocado production is increasing in Uganda and sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) to tap into the lucrative market especially in Western Europe, China, Japan, and Russia. However, there is limited information about its water and nutrient requirements in end-user-friendly formats especially in Uganda and SSA. We consolidated the scanty information about water and nutrient requirements of Hass avocado and made necessary recalculations and unit conversions to aid meaningful uptake of the information by...
