摘要: ABSTRACTThis study focuses on the role of mechanised sowing and weeding in combination with seed priming fertiliser microdosing Mali. Mechanised were based using a combined donkey-drawn planter/weeder motorised planter/weeder. The research methods included studies delivery manual sowing, field experiments different levels mechanization/intensification, labour mechanisation an economic assessment intensification.The average sorghum grain yield across three years increased by 352 kg ha−1 (43.7% increase) combining 0.2 g NPK 15-15-15 per pocket compared to control but without microdosing. demand (sowing weeding) for manual, operations was 184, 67 47 hours ha−1, respectively.An analysis showed that is appropriat...
