1. Manipulation of Row Spacing Did Not Affect Growth and Yield of Chia in Two Contrasting Environments in KenyaSustainability of agricultural production relies on a good management strategy in crop production. Optimal spacing is one of the major crop management systems in chia production required to increase yield and quality of chia seed. In this regard, this study explored the potential of different row spacing on the growth and yield of chia in Kenya. Two experiments comprising three spacing arrangements of 30 cm x 10 cm, 60 cm x 10 cm and 90 cmx 10 cm were carried out in Kabete and Nyeri in a randomized... A.W. Muturi, A. Wanjiku muturi, A.

2. 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 |
