摘要: An intensive dairy and crop farming system found in the East African highlands provides manure urine, taken from stalls of improved cattle, for crops such as banana. By using panel data 894 rural households 2003 2005 Uganda, we find that number cattle per ha increases organic fertilizer application on banana plots by 218 kg/ha. Regarding yield, 1 ton yield 10%, a one percentage point increase soil matter (SOM) 7%. Because improves SOM long run, it has long-term impact yield.
