The book targets various agro-ecological zones in Africa Several long-term experimental trials are highlighted thus sharing knowledge and experiences on long-term experimentation with the reader Soil fertility interventions in Africa are squarely placed in the context of long-term experiments thus giving reader a more accurate picture of soil fertility in Africa
