Agriculture intensification and ecologically sustainable land use in Niger: a case study of evolution of intensive systems with supplementary irrigation

2002-01-01

Abstract excerpt

In Niger, a breakdown of the bush-fallow system, low crop yields and reduced availability of communal land have resulted from increasing population pressure. Agricultural intensification is critical to the future development of the region. Intensification of agricultural production in Niger must include adoption of sustainable yield increasing technologies, fertilizer use, supplementary irrigation and/or water con...
