| Abstract | Estimation of yields of the two crops was undertaken on two representative sections of a field on plots 10 m by 10 m. Data taken on each of the plots included agronomic practices undertaken including plant spacing, pest and disease control, organic/inorganic fertilizer applications and field history according to a protocol implemented in AfSIS. Each field was geo-referenced. |
