Nutrient flow modelling for assessing the resource criticality of heterogeneous agricultural systems: A case study in Southwestern Burkina Faso
Despite the many advantages of sustainable intensification (SI), the level of adoption of SI practices in African smallholding farms is still very low, posing the need for adequate methods for monitoring farm sustainability. Macronutrient flows...
Establishing and Operating a Regional Network for Field Measurement of Actual Crop Water Consumption (Evapotranspiration)
Introduction Actual Evapotranspiration (ET a), is the main component required to understand both hydrological and ecological processes between the land surface and the atmosphere. Reliable spatio-temporal distribution of ET is important for...

Desertification has resulted in significant loss of ecosystem processes and services. The techniques and processes to restore degraded watersheds are not linear and integrated watershed management (IWM) must address physical, biological and social approaches to achieve Sustainable Land Management (SLM) objectives.
