HYPOTHESIS The continuous cropping systems, without K fertilization deplete the K reserve of most West African soils. Therefore, K applications on these soils become necessary to increase soil nutrient status and sustain or increase crop yields. SM-CRSP IFS IER

OBJECTIVES The overall objective is to develop K specific recommendations for key stable food crops in West Africa Specifics objectives: To develop and compare a K module to accurately predict K fertilizer requirements, 2. To determine economic benefit. SM-CRSP IFS IER
