Journal ArticleDOI
Sustainable intensification through rotations with grain legumes in Sub-Saharan Africa : A review
TL;DR: Sustained residual benefits of legumes with large N applications indicate the importance of non-N effects in SSA, and relevant non- N effects include improved P availability, changes in SOM, and in pest, disease and striga pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding variability in soybean yield and response to P-fertilizer and rhizobium inoculants on farmers’ fields in northern Nigeria
E. Ronner,Angelinus C. Franke,Angelinus C. Franke,Bernard Vanlauwe,M. Dianda,E. Edeh,B. Ukem,A. Bala,J. van Heerwaarden,Ken E. Giller +9 more
TL;DR: A strong agronomic and economic case exists for the use of inoculants with promiscuous soybean, requiring efforts to improve the availability of good quality inoculant in Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maize-grain legume intercropping for enhanced resource use efficiency and crop productivity in the Guinea savanna of northern Ghana.
Michael Kermah,Angelinus C. Franke,Samuel Adjei-Nsiah,Benjamin D. K. Ahiabor,Robert C. Abaidoo,Robert C. Abaidoo,Ken E. Giller +6 more
TL;DR: Land Equivalent Ratios in intercropping systems are greater under low soil fertility conditions than in sole crops and within-row maize-legume intercrops is more productive than distinct row systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
A potato model intercomparison across varying climates and productivity levels
David H. Fleisher,Bruno Condori,Roberto Quiroz,Ashok K. Alva,Senthold Asseng,Carolina Barreda,Marco Bindi,Kenneth J. Boote,Roberto Ferrise,Angelinus C. Franke,Panamanna M. Govindakrishnan,D. Harahagazwe,Gerrit Hoogenboom,Soora Naresh Kumar,Paolo Merante,Claas Nendel,Jørgen E. Olesen,Phillip S. Parker,Dirk Raes,Rubi Raymundo,Alex C. Ruane,Claudio O. Stöckle,Iwan Supit,Eline Vanuytrecht,Joost Wolf,Prem Woli +25 more
TL;DR: These are the first reported results quantifying uncertainty for tuber/root crops and suggest modeling assessments of climate change impact on potato may be improved using an ensemble approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
N 2 -fixation and N contribution by grain legumes under different soil fertility status and cropping systems in the Guinea savanna of northern Ghana.
M. Kermah,Angelinus C. Franke,Samuel Adjei-Nsiah,Benjamin D. K. Ahiabor,Robert C. Abaidoo,Robert C. Abaidoo,Ken E. Giller +6 more
TL;DR: Cropping system and soil fertility effects on N2-fixation were tested in northern Ghana and found more N2 is fixed in sole cropping than intercropping despite comparable %Ndfa.
