Conservation Agriculture in Maize- and Wheat-Based Systems in the (Sub)tropics: Lessons from Adaptation Initiatives in South Asia, Mexico, and Southern Africa (2012, background): “Results from the long-term trial confirm the potential benefits of CA for farmers in the rainfed highlands of Mexico ( Govaerts et al. 2005 ; Govaerts, Mezzalama, et al.”
Inoculation with a Native Soil Community Advances Succession in a Grassland Restoration (2012, background): “Additionally, tilling increases the number of parasitic nematodes and reduces the total abundance and community composition of collembola by selecting a few species (Lagerlof & Andren 1991; Petersen 2002; Govaerts et al. 2006).”
ROTATION IN CONSERVATION AGRICULTURE SYSTEMS OF ZAMBIA: EFFECTS ON SOIL QUALITY AND WATER RELATIONS (2010, background): “Govaerts et al. (2006) conclude from their studies in Mexico that about 30% of the maize yield increases on zero tillage fields with residue retention can be explained by higher infiltration and favourable moisture dynamics.”
Light interception and radiation use efficiency response to narrow-wide row planting patterns in maize (2012, background): “Planting pattern is an important factor for agricultural sustainability development in influencing the soil protection (Frey et al., 1999; Govaerts et al., 2006).”
