Exploring Temperature-Related Effects in Catch Crop Net N Mineralization Outside of First-Order Kinetics

Nitrogen, 2021
Catch crops are an effective method for reducing nitrogen (N) leaching in agriculture, but the mineralization of incorporated catch crop residue N is difficult to predict and model. We conducted a five-month incubation experiment using fresh residue from

Soil quality and fertility dynamics under a continuous cassava-maize rotation in the semi-deciduous forest agro-ecological zone of Ghana

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2023
The practice of crop rotation is known to significantly influence soil nutrient dynamics, depending on the type of rotation and the crops involved. As such, a field study was conducted to find out the effect of continuous cassava-maize rotation, where ...

Comparative short-term performance of soil water management options for increased productivity of maize-cowpea intercropping in semi-arid Zimbabwe

Journal of Agriculture and Food Research, 2021
Rainfall variability poses a great challenge to rainfed cropping in sub-Saharan Africa. We evaluated, over three cropping seasons, conservation agriculture (reduced tillage and mulching) and farmer prioritized conventional tillage- and mulching-based ...
