1. Enhancing Farmers' Indigenous Knowledge Management in Cassava Varietal Trial Using Agro Ecosystem Analysis, Farmers' Drama Group and Animations in Eastern part of Nigeria.Researchers continue to come up with new varieties but farmer perspectives and preferences are very important factors for new varieties to spread in farmers’ communities. Researcher priorities alone are not enough. A variety may be ‘scientifically perfect... C.C. Asiabaka, M.O. Adesope, C.C. Ifeanyi- Obi, R.N. Nwakwasi, F. Nnadi, E.C. Matthews- Njoku, J. Chikaire |
2. Soil Microbial Biomass and Bacterial Diversity Enhanced Through Winter Cover Cropping in Paddy FieldsRice production is typically based on input-intensive and often environmentally unsustainable monoculture system. Alternatives are increasing, such as fallow cover cropping and rice–fish coculture (RFC). However, options of fallow cover cropping in RFC are scarcely explored, and the soil microbial response strategies to cover cropping remain unclear. Here, we evaluated soil-plant-microbe interactions under three cover cropping systems: Chinese milk vetch single cropping (CM), rapeseed single... S. Cai, S. Xu, D. Zhang, H. Zhu, L. Longchamps |
