1. Tomato yield and economic performance under organic and mineral fertilizer applications in coastal TogoResearch efforts towards enhancing vegetables production are still needed in Togo. We assessed tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) yield and associated economic returns under three soil fertility management strategies in a 3-yr period study. Three tomato varieties were used including: MONGAL-F1 (V1), SUMO-F1 (V2) and COBRA 26-F1 (V3). The fertilization regimes were: no fertilizer application as the control (F1), application of 200 kg of N15P15K15 + 100... J.M. Sogbedji, M. Lare |
2. IMPACT OF SENSOR-BASED PRECISION NITROGEN MANAGEMENT ON WHEAT YIELD AND NITROGEN USE EFFICIENCYOptical sensors are promising new technology for precision nitrogen management in crops. Fertilizer N management for wheat (Cultivar: Giza 171) using optical sensor (GreenSeeker®) was evaluated at the Experimental Farm of Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University, Giza Governorate, Egypt. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replications during two successive winter seasons (2017/2018 and 2018/2019) to quantify the relationship between N uptake at jointing growth...

3. Decision Support System in AgricultureDescriptive integrated models for water resource management are not limited to hydrological variables, but integrate environmental socio-economic subsystems and study the interactions and feedbacks between the various interacting subsystems. Agriculture is a major water resource management sector that takes economic factors into account. In dynamic system models, we try to look for the optimal economic policies to achieve sustainability by introducing... |
4. Optimizing Maize Production Through Minimum Tillage in Conservation Agriculture Systems: Evidence from Malawi's LowlandsSustainable intensification in agricultural systems has been implemented and promoted across Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) as a strategy for addressing low crop productivity often resulting in widespread food and nutritional insecurity. This study sought to assess the productivity potential of conservation agriculture (CA) cropping systems and associated crop establishment techniques in terms of grain, protein and energy yield. An on-station trial was implemented at Chitala Research Station in Malawi... D. Nyamayevu, I. Nyagumbo, W. Liang , R. Li |
