Renforcer la résilience des petits exploitants agricoles en améliorant les chaînes de valeur du lait gérées par des femmes Le but de ce projet est de soutenir le développement de chaînes de valeur résiliantes pour le lait de chèvre et de vache au Maroc et au Sénégal respectivement. Les deux chaînes de valeur sont d’une importance capitale pour les femmes et offrent un grand potentiel pour améliorer les moyens de subsistance grâce à des revenus plus importants et à une meilleure sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle. Mais ces chaînes de valeur présentent également des défis techniques et de développement dans le contexte des changements climatiques, de la dégradation des sols, de l’isolement rural et de l’émigration.

Enhancing the Resilience of Smallholder Farms in North and West Africa through Upgrading of Women Managed Dairy Value Chains. The project addresses the problem of vulnerability of family farms in Morocco and Senegal to global and local forces of climate change, land degradation, economic power imbalance, market shocks, and the exclusion of rural women from participating in the development of more resilient local solutions to these problems. We propose to change this situation by enhancing the resilience, the quality and the sustainability of local food systems, especially milk production and processing systems. This work was carried out with the aid of a grant from the International Development Research Centre, Ottawa, Canada, supported by the African Plant Nutrition Institute.

4R Nutrient Stewardship Project - Nakpayili’s Nutrient Omission Trial Site in Nanumba South District of Northern Ghana presented by Dr. Samuel Njoroge, Program Manager at APNI.
Researchers in Burkina Faso are looking to long-term field research to answer a set of key questions related to soil phosphorus (P) sustainability for P-depleted soils in Sub-Saharan Africa. Dr. Mariam Dohan Kiba-Soma, Soil Scientist at Institut de l’Environnement et de Recherches Agricoles in Burkina Faso is leading this study, which is taking place within the Saria long-term study site in the Nord Sudanese zone of west-central Burkina Faso. Since this site has been in place since 1960, it provides Dr. Kiba-Soma with over 60 years of legacy soil P to compare across a range of different crop rotations and fertilization strategies. Dr. Kiba-Soma’s proposal for this work was awarded the Young African Phosphorus Fellowship Award in 2020, an ongoing initiative of APNI, OCP Group, and Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P). This award is designed to encourage and expand scientific programs that can improve our understanding of P management in African agro-ecosystems. Learn more about the project: https://apni.net

Researchers on-site to inspect a set of nutrient omission plots (NOTs) for wheat growing in Minjar Shenkora District, in the Amhara region of Ethiopia. The plots evaluated the effect of omitting nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and micronutrients on wheat growth and yield, against a plot receiving a balanced application of all nutrients. #sharegrowingafrica
