Agronomic Survey to Estimate Actual Yield Obtained by Farmers in Their Own Practices and Relation with Management Strategies

<p>This study contains yield data of the two crops from tow representative sections of a field on plots 10m by 10m. Data taken on each of the plots included agronomic practices undertaken including plant spacing, pest and disease control, organic/inorganic fertilizer applications and field history according to a protocol implemented in AfSIS. Each field was geo-referenced. </p>
