• Conservation agriculture in African mixed crop-livestock systems: Expanding the niche (2014, background): “This may be the results of a high incidence of yield-reducing factors such as weeds, pests and diseases, and/or of poor response to N and P (Vanlauwe et al., 2010).”
• Participatory action research (PAR) as an entry point for supporting climate change adaptation by smallholder farmers in Africa (2013, background): “It is also increasingly clear that significant improvements in soil fertility will not be achieved without substantial increases in mineral fertilizer use and its efficient management in combination with organic nutrient resources available to farming households (Vanlauwe et al., 2010; Bationo et al”
• Raising Crop Productivity in Africa through Intensification (2017, background): “ISFM emphasizes the optimization of agronomic efficiency through maximizing the efficiency of fertilizer and organic inputs since these resources are the most limiting in areas where crop intensification is implemented [146].”
• Influence of integrated soil fertility management in wheat and tef productivity and soil chemical properties in the highland tropical environment (2014, background): “Soil fertility decline is the pressing issue in subSaharan Africa (Sanchez et al. 1997; Bationo et al. 2006; Sangingaand Woomer, 2009; Vanlauwe et al., 2010).”
• Closing maize yield gaps in sub-Saharan Africa will boost soil N2O emissions (2020, background): “Migliorati et al.

• Understanding variability in soybean yield and response to P-fertilizer and rhizobium inoculants on farmers’ fields in northern Nigeria (2016, background): “Legumes can be grown in rotation with other crops, with the additional advantage of reducing the need for N fertilizer for subsequent cereals in the context of Integrated Soil Fertility Management (ISFM) (Vanlauwe et al., 2010).”
• Sustainable intensification and the African smallholder farmer (2014, methodology): “Degraded soils often do not respond to applied nutrients (Figure 3b; [15 ]).”
