dc.description.abstractHaiti’s soils suffer from severe degradation as a result of erosion, leading to decreased yields and low food security. The soils of Haiti’s Central Plateau, while less degraded than in other regions, are constrained by lack of water. A conservation agriculture production system can address this by increasing yields, reducing erosion, and improving water use efficiency. This poster provides an overview of the SANREM Innovation Lab program to promote conservation agriculture production system in Haiti’s Central Plateau, and displays the effects of tillage and cover crop treatment on grain yield.en
