Mineral fertilisation by microdose: Incentives for widespread adoption in Burkina Faso
African Crop Science Journal, 2019 Mineral fertilisation by microdosing has been tested in Burkina Faso since 2000 to increase the agricultural productivity of small farmers. In order to identify the determinants of its adoption, data were collected from a random sample of 180 women and 440 men in the provinces of Zondoma and Kourittenga in Burkina Faso; where the innovation was ...

Yield gaps, nutrient use efficiencies and response to fertilisers by maize across heterogeneous smallholder farms of western Kenya [PDF]
, 2008 The need to promote fertiliser use by African smallholder farmers to counteract the current decline in per capita food production is widely recognised. But soil heterogeneity results in variable responses of crops to fertilisers within single farms.
