Integrated Crop-Livestock Technologies for Smallholder Farming Systems
Enhancing smallholder crop-livestock farming productivity through the testing and dissemination of integrated technologies and practices. Activities include assessing variety effects on groundnut yield, maximizing maize-based cropping yields, and evaluating cowpea mulch for weed control and soil properties. The project involves a diverse research team and aims to contribute to sustainable agriculture in West Africa.
