Revival of traditional agricultural systems – A multidisciplinary on‐farm survey of maize‐bean intercropping reveals unexpected competition effects on beans

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Cereal‐legume intercropping is a promising strategy for sustainable agroecosystems, leveraging the biological complementarities between plant species to reduce the need for inputs while enhancing field biodiversity. Here, we focused on maize‐bean intercropping, which is experiencing a revival in conventional agricultural settings.

Know your men and women farmers: Ensuring host farmers in participatory trials represent heterogeneity within the target environment

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Gender responsive and more socially inclusive breeding strategies are needed to ensure new crop varieties, which offer greater yields in an increasingly variable climate, meet the needs of a diverse range of smallholder farmers. Participatory varietal selection actively involves farmers in testing and selecting new varieties at the end of the breeding ...
