s:847:"%T Soil management strategies to sustain continuous crop production between vegetative contour strips on humid tropical hillside. Technology development and dissemination based on farmers' adaptive field experimentation in the Philippines %A Stark M %X The objectives of the present study were: to documents the use of natural vegetative strips for soil conservation by farmers in the Philippine uplands. It was also used to identify and evaluate indigenous farmers' strategies to improve this system with a major focus on overcoming the negative effects of upper terrace soil fertility scouring on crop yield. To document the researcher-to farmer and farmer-to-farmer dissemination of research results. Experimental sites were located in a degraded acidic soil environment, typical for the majority of upland areas in humid Southeast Asia. ";
