• Synergistic effect of inorganic N and P fertilizers and organic inputs from Gliricidia sepium on productivity of intercropped maize in Southern Malawi (2007, background): “At approximately 20% N use efficiency (Makumba et al. 2005; Akinnifesi et al. 2006), the N contributed by gliricidia to maize in the trial is equivalent to approximately 60 kg N ha 1 of inorganic fertilizer.”
• Adoption of renewable soil fertility replenishment technologies in the southern African region: Lessons learnt and the way forward (2007, background): “…relative to inorganic fertilizers that are often less accessible to smallholder farmers since they require high cash transactions or credit (Akinnifesi et al. , 2006; Mafongoya et al. , 2006; Mekuria and Waddington, 2004; Waddington et al. , 2004; Haggblade and Tembo, 2003; Kwesiga et…”
