Agroecological System of Manure Production
In western Burkina Faso, on-farm manure production has long been confined to the edges of houses and cattle pens. With increasing land pressure and the remoteness of fields, manure production was hampered by transport constraints, and a large proportion of raw material needed in manure production, such as crop residues and faeces, were lost. On-farm manure production remained insufficient for soil fertility renewal.
