This paper conducts an in-depth analysis of the current operational status of the agricultural cultural heritage system in Hebei, identifying such issues as the absence and fragmentation of institutional content, impeded implementation mechanisms coupled with a lack of…

Sustainable intensification of rainfed rice systems in sub-Saharan Africa is constrained by low soil fertility and limited access to mineral fertilizers. Integrated nutrient management that combines organic and mineral sources offers a promising pathway to enhance productivity and soil health. A field experiment was conducted in Nkolbisson, Cameroon, to evaluate the effects of pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan L.) biomass and mineral fertilizers on the growth, yield, and soil properties of rainfed…

Purpose of this study is to improve knowledge of the physicochemical traits that determine the degree of soil fertility in Eastern Cameroonian farming systems. Using an auger and a completely randomized block design, soil samples were taken from the 0–30 cm stratum in accordance with a randomization procedure. In the laboratory, sixteen identified and conditioned samples were analyzed. According to the analyses, the texture of cocoa is clayey-sandy, that of oil palm is sandy clayey, that of…
