Main research programs: Programs B. Stable agricultural production

Abstract

In developing regions including Africa, agricultural production potential has not been sufficiently realized because of adverse conditions such as low soil fertility and drought. Consequently, food and nutrition security has remained a major challenge. This program, therefore, aims to enhance agricultural productivity and improve nutrition in developing countries through technology development for stable production of agricultural products in the tropics and other adverse environments. To achieve our goals, we conduct the following four research projects.
