Enhancing agroecosystem productivity with woody perennials in semi-arid West Africa. A meta-analysis

The general aims of restoration are, in most cases to increase vegetation cover, increase biodiversity and to increase production potential for improving grazing

To unravel the effects of changes in soil fertility, or the capacity of soil nutrients to sustain crop growth, and in soil productivity, the capacity of the soil to ensure crop

Here we explore the use and management of native woody resources for providing an in situ renewable organic amendment as a basis for increasing soil carbon and biological

Livestock was a strong driver of nutrient transfers from rangelands to croplands at landscape level and an essential component of sustainable soil fertility

In our simulations, the major effect of climate change on the yields of millet and sorghum in West Africa was yield losses induced by higher temperature leading to increased
