Groundnut is an important food, feed and cash crop in Eastern Africa but in Kenya it has a
yield gap of 2.5 t ha-l and this is attributed to low soil fertility, diseases, poor seed quality
and poor husbandry practices. Soil exhaustion being ranked as the major groundnut
production constraint in Sub Saharan Africa and particularly in Western Kenya it was
necessary to evaluate the response of growing high yielding and disease tolerant (groundnut
rosette virus disease) varieties with the use of various fertilizer types and rates. This would
ensure increased productivity for the smallholder farmers who predominantly produce the
crop at a profitable production regime.
On-station experiments (fertilizer types and rates) were conducted in two sites, which
included Kenya' Agricultural Research Institute (KARl) site at Alupe in Busia district and
Ministry of Agriculture's Agricultural Training Centre (ATC) site at Siaya district during
the long rain (March - July 2007). Read more..
