Reducing emissions fromdeforestation and forest degradation with other benefits (REDD+) mechanism is supposed to address the reversal of forest-based land degradation, conservation of existing carbon stocks, and enhancement ...

Improvement of the soils physico-chemical and microbiological properties using organic fertilizers in tomato production in the Sudanese-Sahelian zone Tomato production is facing many constraints that limit its yield. The ...

The yield stability of eight taro (Colocasia esculenta (L) Schott) genotypes across two locations in two years was assessed using the Additive Main Effect and Multiplicative Interaction (AMMI) and Genotype and ...

Several cassava varieties are grown in Côte d’Ivoire. Some of them are more widespread than others. Their dissemination depends on characteristics such as yield, taste and dry matter content. Cassava bacterial blight ...

CONTEXT: Although rice production has increased significantly in the last decade in West Africa, the region is far from being rice self-sufficient. Inland valleys (IVs) with their relatively higher water content and soil ...

A sound breeding program for maize improvement is very important to meet the demands of the growing population. Therefore, combining ability and heterosis were studied in a 4 x 4 full diallel cross in maize for growth ...

De part son extension spatiale et ses interactions avec les différents secteurs productifs, le développement agricole est l'un des moteurs fondamentaux de l'économie nationale. L’évolution des politiques de développement ...

Surface observations provide ground evidence of climate change to support the scientific guidance paving the way to better adaptation and mitigation actions. The West African Science Service Centre on Climate Change and ...

Inland valleys are becoming increasingly important agricultural production areas for rural households in sub-Saharan Africa due to their relative high and secure water availability and soil fertility. In addition, inland ...

Plant breeding experiments require the use of appropriate experimental designs that will efficiently block variation due to wide heterogeneity nature of tropical soils. The primary objective of this study was to assess ...
