Land CAPITAL: Agronomy to Recapitalize Multiple Benefit Landscapes

There is a critical need to develop and implement site-specific knowledge, skills and strategies for sustainable recapitalization of their agricultural landscapes. Practical adoption of Multi-purpose landscape agronomy is a principle central to exploring the benefits of innovative nutrient use and crop diversification within our cropping systems. Among many, the benefits from extending this approach include enhancement of nutrient and water use efficiency, carbon sequestration and access to carbon financing, soil and ecosystem health, climatic adaptation, and improvement in on-farm livelihoods and security.

Our partnerships with farmers, research institutions, and market actors play a crucial role in scaling up Land Capital initiatives. This collaboration facilitates knowledge exchange, research and technology transfer, and policy development needed to drive innovation and value chain development in African agricultural landscapes.
