A participatory soil quality assessment in Northern Ethiopia's Mai-Negus catchment
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/42534
Abstract
Local communities often have substantial knowledge related to trends in soil quality and the associated limiting factors. Despite this, soil quality (SQ) degradation is a critical problem in Ethiopia and there is little or insufficient scientific information documenting local community experience in assessing SQ. This paper presents…

Silicon deficiency and the adaptation of tropical rice ecotypes
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/44095
Abstract
Although silicon (Si) is found at much higher concentrations in healthy rice crops than N, P or K, it has received far less study, particularly for upland rice. There are few reports on the existence, causes, and effects of varying Si supplies in different environments. Chemical analyses of soil, water and plant tissue samples from experiments grown on a…
