dc.description.abstractThis PowerPoint summarizes the research and training activities of SANREM’s regional project in Lesotho and Mozambique. During the presentation, each graduate student involved in the project gave a brief description of their research. Timoteo Simone presented research on adoption, returns, payments for environmental services (PES) and conservation agriculture practices (CAPs). Ivan Cuvaca discussed cassava tuber yield and quality as influenced by NPK fertilizer. Molefi Mpheshea described maize yield response to fertilizer in Lesotho and aspects of soil quality. Lilian Mbuthia examined whether microbial populations change under long term conservation agriculture, and Deb O’ Dell compared carbon dioxide Flux between Till and No-till in Lesotho.en
