World Agroforestry Center (ICRAF); Sokoine University of Agriculture (SUA), 2016, "Africa RISING Tanzania- Maize Intensification Using Fertilizer", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/6YPPQO, Harvard Dataverse, V2, UNF:6:/edJzlPnY2ynfiSh6AykoQ== [fileUNF]
Using appropriate fertilizer recommendations and effective fertilizer materials is important to meet nutrient requirements of maize and sustain soil fertility. Unlike other agroecological zones, no fertilizer recommendations have been developed for the semi-arid zone in Tanzania, undermining the effort to target technologies in the specific biophys... |

The Africa RISING program adopts the mother-baby trial approach to test, validate and disseminate research results. Under this approach farmers have been exposed to the technologies tested and validated on-farm (mother trials). Thereafter, farmers are given the opportunity to experiment technology they chose on their farms (baby trials) after a tra... |

World Agroforestry Center (ICRAF); Sokoine University of Agriculture (SUA), 2017, "Fertilizer Microdosing", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/4DDPFG, Harvard Dataverse, V2, UNF:6:5YkEkOFQxazM1xH4i9FDew== [fileUNF]
Most farmers and extension officers in Tanzania use blanket fertilizer recommendations, which can be ineffective in sustaining crops productions. The most recent fertilizer recommendation report (Marandu et al., 2014) do not have guidelines for semiarid zones. Besides, developing agronomic rates (Mkoma, 2015), our work in 2016 seasons addressed the... |

International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT); Selian Agricultural Research Institute (SARI), 2016, "Promoting Sustainable Intensification Through Efficient Application of Different Sources of Phosphorus (Minjingu Granular, Minjingu Mazao, DAP and TSP) (CIAT)", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/G2CSNP, Harvard Dataverse, V2, UNF:6:LnfY9ZNyOlsYfDers61HHA== [fileUNF]
This study contains data from twelve (12) sites/farmers on sustainable intensification through efficient application of different fertilizers. These 12 sites/farmers were selected from Hallu, Long, Seloto, and Sabilo villages. Farmer selection was participatory, but among farmers who were willing to provide land and were also committed to implement... |
