1. Small Machinery for Sustainable Intensification of Crop-Livestock System under Biomass ShortageSmall crop-livestock systems in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMIC) such as North African ones are characterized by low mechanization levels, thus undermining their productivity and sustainability. Machinery being promoted in local markets are made and imported mostly from industrial countries where farm systems are larger in terms of size. Prices of these machines are not affordable for small to medium sized land-holding farmers who remain incapable of upgrading and modernizing their farming... U. Rudiger, Z. Aidoudi, A. Frija, M.

2. Mapping the Spatial Variability, Status and Magnitude of Soil Acidity in Semen Ari District of South Omo, Southwestern EthiopiaSoil acidity is one of the major constraints to cropping systems in the vast highlands of Ethiopia. A common strategy for ameliorating soil acidity is the application of agricultural lime. However, formulation of measurement strategy was hampered by the lack of information on magnitude, extent and status of soil acidity and, high resolution soil acidity map. Therefore, this study was investigated to assess the magnitude and status of soil acidity, map its spatial variability in Semen... A.H. Hemacho |
