Judicious soil fertility management is crucial for sustainable crop
production and food security in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). This book
describes the various concepts and approaches underlying soil and
soil fertility management research in SSA over the last fifty
years. It provides examples of important innovations generated and
assesses the position of research within the
research-to-development continuum, including how innovations have
been validated with the intended beneficiaries. Using the
experience of the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture
(IITA) as a case study, the authors analyse how processes,
partnerships and other factors have affected research priorities,
the delivery of outputs, and their uptake by farming communities in
SSA. They evaluate both successes and failures of past investments
in soil fertility research and important lessons learnt which
provide crucial information for national and international
scientists currently engaged in this research area. The book is
organised in a number of chapters each covering a chronological
period characterised by its primary research content and approaches
and by the dominant research paradigms and delivery models.
