Farmers' perception on soil erosion has not adequately reported in the conditions of Ghana though its causes and effects are time and site-specific. The objective of this study was to assess farmers' perception on soil erosion and implication for dev

Composting of animal manure had been considered a sustainable alternative method for recycling organic waste. However the process involved had been associated with greenhouse gas emission (CO2, N2O and CH4) which play an active role in global warming

This paper develops and tests a simple relationship for predicting the decomposition of plant residues of diverse composition under varying soil water conditions. Known weights of four plants samples comprising of groundnut (Gn), mucuna (Mc), maize (

A model, PIXGRO, developed by coupling a canopy flux sub-model ( PROXELNEE; PROcess-based piXEL Net Ecosystem CO2 Exchange) to a vegetation structure submodel (CGRO), for simulating both net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE) and growth of spring barley is

This study tests the validity of the Sur and Kukal modified hydrometer method for particle size analysis on eight Ghanaian soils of varying texture. The method assumes that hydrometer readings at any time could be predicted from an exponential equati

The performance of maize and cowpea in sole and intercropping at two savanna zones in Ghana (Accra and Tamale) was evaluated using stochastic dominance and multi-criteria analysis techniques. The stochastic dominance analysis investigated the distrib

We present a simple framework for modelling root growth and distribution with depth under varying soil water conditions. The framework considers the lateral growth of roots (proliferation) and the vertical extension of roots (root front velocity). Th

We present a simple root-growth model that is capable of reproducing root distribution patterns as conditioned by varying soil conditions. The model assumes that the lateral growth of roots at any depth is governed by two factors: (i) the current roo

The worldwide agricultural sector faces the significant challenge of increasing production to provide food security for a population projected to rise to nine billion by mid-century, while protecting the environment and the sustainable functioning of

Climate change is already impacting negatively on Africa through extreme temperatures, frequent flooding and droughts, and increased salinity of water supplies used for irrigation (IPCC 2007). Widespread poverty and high dependence on rain-fed agricu
