Lessons from On-farm Experimentation on Climate-Smart Management for Upland Rice in Uganda
A farmer-led field study in western Uganda revealed varied rice yield gap reduction with nutrient application to major upland soil types and different responses to the impacts of climate variability due to moisture stress.

On-farm Experimentation Process Triggers Kenyan Farmers’ Zeal to Test Technologies in Maize Systems
There is need to rethink the process of conducting on-farm research to better foster knowledge transfer and innovation. Through a participatory on-farm experimentation (OFE) approach, this study was carried out to validate a package of soil moisture and fertilizer nitrogen management practices, and to track farmer adoption of better agronomic practices.

The Role of 4R Plant Nutrition in Living Agricultural Landscapes: Developing the Nitrogen Water Carbon Nexus
Food systems around the world must sustainably increase their performance to meet the growing demand for the foods and ecosystem services they provide. This issue is global in nature but is particularly sensitive in Africa because food systems there, which have hardly improved over the previous 50 years, are being looked upon to meet surging regional, continental, and global needs.
