Hill-placement of manure and fertilizer for improving maize nutrient- and water-use efficiencies in the northern Benin
Optimizing the use of organic and mineral fertilizer in rain-fed maize production is crucial for sustainable food production in sub-Saharan Africa. This study investigates the effect of hill-placement of two nutrient sources (farmyard manure and synthetic fertilizer) on nutrient- and water-use effic...
