Cost-benefit analysis of on-farm management of improved forage varieties in western Kenya
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/119265
Abstract
Yield of forages is influenced by several factors including climate and soil. The heterogeneity presented in each site leads to the varying yields of forages. As a result, sites with better soils and climate have higher yields, subsequently higher profitability. Each forage variety is suited and performed better in different agro ecological zones. This explains the differences in profitability index…
