Seven sweet potato varieties were tested at three locations of Tigray in 2012 cropping season. to evaluate the yield and yield components of the varieties in southern and eastern zones of Tigray. The experiment was laid out in RCBD with three replications and in plot size of 4.2m x 2.4m. Net harvestable plot area was 7.2 m2 with inter and intra-row spacing of 0.60m and 0.30m respectively. Combined analyses of variance for the three locations indicated the existence of significant to highly significant (P

The decline in soil fertility is widespread in Tigray and is threatening food security. Integrated Nutrient Management (INM) which implies combined application of organic and inorganic fertilizers, helps to overcome the problems associated with single application of either source for enhanced crop productivity. Based on this fact, an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of integrated application of inorganic fertilizers and FYM on soil fertility status, agronomic and socioeconomic performance of rice. A 4x3 factorial experiment consisting of four levels of inorganic fertilizers (0,...
