"This book presents recent research findings on common bean production and challenges in the volcanic highlands of Rwanda and Uganda. It bears more focus on the soils' capacity to maintain phosphorus in plant available form in the condition of high phosphorus fixing Andosols of the East African region. It is a good piece for researchers as well as policymakers who are devoted on advancing common beans as a major staple and income sourcing enterprise for the economically impoverished communities in this heavily populated and yet food insecure region of sub-Saharan Africa."
