Abstract Remote sensing observations such as normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) trends can provide important insights into past and present land condition. However, they do not directly comprehensive information about our representation of degradation the processes at work. This study aimed to analyze productivity underlying factors in order assess highlight impact definitions on its quantitative assessment, using Mozambique case‐study. Land change were first analyzed NDVI...
Abstract Savanna ecosystems in sub‐Saharan Africa harbor substantial yet relatively unexplored reserves of soil organic carbon (SOC). Our study unravels for the first time interplay between climate, reference groups, and anthropogenic disturbances shaping SOC dynamics these ecosystems. We analyzed along climosequences natural woodlands Mozambique Zambia, with mean annual temperature (MAT) 20–24°C, precipitation (MAP) 365–1,227 mm. Anthropogenic were assessed through comprehensive field...
Maize is one of the most important staple food crops in Mozambique. Its production country-wise dominated by smallholder farmers (more than 90%) under rain-fed conditions, where risk crop failure high, especially semi-arid conditions southern Several maize genotypes have been developed for broad agro-ecological zone adaptation but lack strong evidence about their productivity and yield stability to support decision-making farming systems. In order assess different environments, five...
Abstract Phosphorus (P) is a key limiting nutrient in tropical and subtropical soils but with unknown responses to climate change. We hypothesized that storage distribution of P pools differ between reference soil groups, availability increases an increase precipitation native sub‐Saharan Africa, underrepresented region the global database. To test these hypotheses, we sampled topsoils (0–10 cm; Arenosols, Lixisols, Acrisols) uncultivated Savannah woodlands along gradients stretching from...
Seed born cashew (Anacardium occidentale L) seedlings are planted directly when they produced from polyclonal orchards. In a common scenario, grafted before transplanting. For this purpose, adjusting the size between scions and rootstock is highly important for success of grafts it can be achieved through visual selection scions. However, working with large numbers physical becomes laborious time consuming workers. Therefore, creating uniformity in grafting crucial. We present experimental...
