Mehlich 3 as an indicator of grain nutrient concentration for five cereals in sub-Saharan Africa
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/137855
Abstract
Soil testing for available nutrients is an important tool to determine fertilizer rates, however many standard methods test the availability of a single nutrient only. In contrast, Mehlich 3 (M3) is a multi-element test for predicting crop yield responses to the addition of macro and micronutrients. However, the M3 test has rarely been validated against crop nutrient concentrations, which…

Decoding 'effectiveness' in climate change adaptation - Insights from research
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/138322
Abstract
Article 7.1 of the Paris Agreement articulates a global goal on adaptation, which aims to ensure an ‘adequate adaptation response’ complementary to the objective of limiting global temperature rise to "well below 2°C and to 1.5°C”. The Paris Agreement further requires countries to regularly review the ‘adequacy’ and ‘effectiveness’ of adaptation and the support provided for adaptation. However,…

Landscape and micronutrient fertilizer effect on agro-fortified wheat and teff grain nutrient concentration in Western Amhara
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/137500
Abstract
Agronomic biofortification, encompassing the use of mineral and organic nutrient resources which improve micronutrient concentrations in staple crops is a potential strategy to promote the production of and access to micronutrient-dense foods at the farm level. However, the heterogeneity of smallholder farming landscapes presents challenges on implementing agronomic…
