Replication Data for: Root traits and their potential links to plant ideotypes to improve drought resistance in common bean.
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/92355
Abstract
Root and shoot traits related with drought resistance in common beans. A set of 36 bean genotypes belonging to the Middle American gene pool were evaluated under field and greenhouse conditions under drought stress conditions. Field data on grain yield and other shoot traits measured under drought were related with the greenhouse data on root traits under drought…

Genotype x environment interaction in Arachis pintoi
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/76695
Abstract
Agronomic evaluation. In 1994, the available 27 accessions of Arachis pintoi and 5 of Arachis repens, were planted at 6 sites in Colombia to evaluate genotype-environment interaction. The environments ranged from the humid tropics (Macagual and La Rueda in Caqueta), the savannas (a sandy loam (Alegria) and clay loam (Alcancla) soil sites at Carimagua, Meta) to the seasonally dry hillsides (a fertile clay loam at Chinchina and a silty loam…

Replication Data for: Towards an assessment of on-farm niches for improved forages in Sud-Kivu, DR Congo
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/80081
Abstract
Inadequate quantity and quality of livestock feed is a persistent constraint to productivity for mixed crop-livestock farming in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. To assess on-farm niches of improved forages, demonstration trials and participatory on-farm research were conducted in four different sites. Forage legumes included Canavalia brasiliensis (CIAT 17009), Stylosanthes…

Abstract
The soil physics (PE-2: Soils project of CIAT) had several field experiments in both tropical savannas and hillsides agroecosystems.
To organize the data, three big blocks were established: one block for hillsides agroecosystem and two blocks (Culticore and Plains (Altillanura)) for savannas agroecosystem. For hillsides agroecosystem, data from 1995 to 2000 were…

Abstract
We present results of a randomized evaluation that assesses the effects of different incentives for diffusion of agricultural knowledge by smallholders in northern Uganda. Randomly-selected disseminating farmers (DFs) from a large sample of villages are assigned to one of three experimental arms: (a) training about climate smart agriculture, (b) training plus a material…

Replication Data for: Application of secondary nutrients and micronutrients increases crop yields in sub-Saharan Africa
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/82823
Abstract
Secondary and micronutrients are important in enhancing crop productivity; yet, they are hardly studied in sub-Sahara Africa. In this region, the main focus has been on macronutrients but there is emerging though scattered evidence of crop productivity limitations by the secondary and micronutrients. Elsewhere, widespread deficiencies of these nutrients are associated with…
