1. Digital platforms for boosting farmer knowledge: Two case studies in Kenya and UgandaApproximately 80% of all farms in Africa, or 33 million farms, are two hectares or less in size. Many of these smallholder farmers do not have access to resources, including extension services, to improve their farms. Lack of knowledge of Good Agronomic Practices (GAPs) causes farmers to fail to reach their full yield potential. Extension workers responsible to provide these GAPs to farmers are spread thin. For example, as of March of 2019, there was one extension worker for every 1,800 coffee... E. Bakirdjian, T. Harigaya, M. Osia, J. Zhu, J. Abuli |
2. Determining Nutrients rates for Maize, Rice, Cotton, and Tomato in Dry Savannah zone of Togo based on site specific nutrient management approachInadequate fertilizer application limits crop yields and lead to the soil fertility depletion. This study aims at formulating nutrients rates recommendations for main the crops in dry savannah zone of Togo. Site specific nutrient management approach based on spatial variations in nutrients status, crops nutrients requirement and average crop yields under field conditions was used to determine recommendations rates in N, P and K. For maize cropping, nutrients needs are 94 kgN.ha-1, 42... |
3. Decision Aids: Mobile Apps and SensorsProducers are challenged daily with decisions. With the advancement in technologies the access to decision aid tools is becoming more wide spread. This decussion covers a few of the easily to use and apply technologies available. ... B. Arnall |
4. A Time Series Investigation to Assess Climate Change and Anthropogenic Impacts on the Degradation of Nile Delta, Egypt.Land degradation risk, status and rate in Nile Delta, Egypt were assessed for a time series using remote sensing data over the past five decades using TM, ETM and OLI. Quantitative deterioration of the area was produced based on the comparative study approach in the integrated weighted sum, weighted overlay and fuzzy model. Where degradation factors were compiled in a raster and each data set scored on a 1 to 5 (very low, low, moderate, high and very high scale). The data sets were then weighted... B. Abdellatif, M.R.

5. Recommandation De Formules De Fertilisation Site-spécifique Pour La Production Du Maïs Dans La Région Des Savanes Du TogoDans le contexte actuel de la dégradation des terres agricoles et des difficultés de disponibilité et d'accès aux intrants agricoles en particulier les engrais, la maximisation de l'efficience d'utilisation des nutriments en nutrition des plantes devient plus que jamais une nécessité. Nous avons conduit en 2020 sous culture de maïs (Zea mays L.), des essais soustractifs à base de l'azote (N), du phosphore (P) et du potassium... M. Lare, J. Sogbedji, K. Lotsi, K. Amouzou, A.
