1. Strengthening the Knowledge Base for Sustainable Management of Inland Valleys in West Africa: Two Pilot Case Study Sites from Benin.Inland valleys offer a unique opportunity for increasing food security in West-Africa, but their potential is constrained by poor water management and a limited hydrological understanding. Increasing the hydrological understanding of inland valleys should be based on long term and detailed validated observations of hydrological fluxes in the different components of the inland valleys. We present in this study, two new pilot case study sites which aim observing the long-term dynamics of water... M.A. Tidjani, P.G. Tovihoudji, I.P. Akponikpe, M. Vanclooster |
2. Development and Validation of an Algorithm for Optical Sensor-based Nitrogen Fertilization for Durum Wheat in Central Ethiopia I. Algorithm DevelopmentMonitoring in-season nitrogen (N) management using proximal optical sensors is often considered highly cost-effective and efficient. Developing a successful sensor-based algorithm to optimize in-season N application for durum wheat could enhance productivity and nitrogen use efficiency. This study aimed to develop and validate a sensor-based algorithm for N fertilization of durum wheat in central Ethiopia. The developed algorithm is based on the prediction of total N uptake from normalized difference... S. Endris, T. Mesfin, O. Atnafu, S. Tamiru |
