s:922:"TI Wetting Africa's appetite: conservation agriculture is turning rainfall into higher crop yields - and catching on AU Rumley R AU Ong C K AB In Africa, an estimated 200 million people are severely undernourished (1). To feed the continent’s growing population, agricultural productivity will need to double in the coming decades — a statistic that has leaders calling for ‘Africa’s Green Revolution’ (1). Such a transformation of the agricultural sector will have to boost crop yields, while ensuring the sustainability of soil, crops and water resources (1, 2). Despite the potential for Conservation Agriculture (CA) to meet these goals, the approach has not been widely adopted in Africa (2). RELMA-supported studies have developed a new CA that is tailored to the African context — where agriculture is largely rainfed — thus supporting adoption and implementation across the continent (2, 3).
