Abstract/Description
Optimized and targeted fertilizer management along landscape positions results in an increased return to fertilizer investment via reducing the cost of inputs and increasing profitability of farmers; improving production efficiency with targeted fertilizer applications. The landscape targeted fertilizer application enables development agents and development partners to provide evidence-based recommendations to farmers; revitalize evidence-based decisions on targeted import of fertilizers or fertilizer blends and recommendations and thereby increasing system productivity through judicious use of fertilizers and other agronomic inputs.
