  • Integrated Soil Improvement and Agricultural Development in West Africa: Why Current Policy Approaches Fail *)
    INTEGRATED SOIL IMPROVEMENT AND AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT IN WEST AFRICA: WHY CURRENT POLICY APPROACHES FAIL *) N. Koning, N. Heerink and S. Kauffman Wageningen University Department of Agricultural Economics and Policy PO Box 8130 6700 EW Wageningen The Netherlands [email protected] Wageningen University Department of Development Economics PO Box 8130 6700 EW Wageningen The Netherlands [email protected] Abstract Integrated soil management is an essential condition for agricultural development in West Africa. Such an approach combines improved soil hydraulic measures, organic fertility measures, and inorganic fertilizers and soil amendments. The synergetic effects which result from this combination are indispensable for achieving the productivity increases needed to cope with the increasing pressure of population. Current (neo-liberal and ecological- participationist) policy approaches are unable to realize the transition towards integrated soil management technologies. The time lags involved in learning to use new technologies, in the adaptation of technologies to local circumstances, and in reaping the benefits of soil fertility investments call for (at least temporary) support of agricultural incomes. Key words: structural adjustment, agricultural policy, soil degradation, soil management, sustainable intensification, food security, West Africa 1 Introduction Unlike other parts of the world, the relative incidence of undernutrition in Sub-Saharan Africa has not decreased but rather seems to have slightly increased over recent decades.(1) A prospective study undertaken for FAO in 1992-93 expected that this situation would hardly improve before 2010. Even this modest expectation was based on an optimistic assumption of a 3.0% annual growth in agricultural production, 2.0% in cereal yields, and 3.3% in fertilizer use per hectare (Alexandratos 1995: 80, 146, 164, 192).

  • Sixty Years of Wisconsin Farm Progress (Technology) Days
    SIXTY YEARS OF WISCONSIN FARM PROGRESS (TECHNOLOGY) DAYS Rough Draft 8-13-2014 Wisconsin Farm Technology Days was initially designed to take the university research findings to the Wisconsin citizens on a functioning farm during an outdoor show. The mission of the show was to promote technologies in agriculture and related industries and provide leadership development and education through businesses, industry and agencies. The concept for the outdoor farm show was first envisioned by Henry Ahlgren in 1952 when he was chair of Farm and Home Week, an event for farmers to learn about the research findings by university researchers. This event had long been held at the University of Wisconsin Campus in Madison. Ahlgren envisioned a larger event, where both exhibitors and farmers could participate and learn about the latest agricultural advances. Ahlgren indicated the rapid growth of the university was proving to be problematic, especially with regard to parking. Figure 1952- . Henry Ahlgren Ahlgren said, “It became almost impossible to get farm people to drive into Madison when there wasn’t any place to park.” In 1952, several agencies, including cooperative Extension, formed a corporation called Wisconsin Farm Progress Days, Inc. An early goal for the show was to have located on an active farm and move it around the state. The corporation had a board of directors which sets the policies for operation of the show which provides consistency from year to year. Volunteers in the host county provide the workforce to plan and conduct the show. Representative from agencies initially involved on the state board are listed in Table 1, including the agency representative in 1953.

Professor Catherine Rymph Professor Pamela Riney-Kehrberg Professor Carol Anderson Professor Robert M. Collins Professor Beth Barham ………………………….to Stephanie. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The research and writing of a dissertation, for the most part a solitary endeavor, nonetheless is the result of dedication, guidance, and contributions of many whom deserve acknowledgement. The Harry S. Truman Presidential Library and the Dwight D. Eisenhower Library both provided generous research grants to explore their collections. The Department of History at the University of Missouri provided a fellowship, freeing me from teaching duties and allowing me to focus on writing. All of these funds are greatly appreciated. I would like to thank all of the members of my dissertation committee for taking the time to read and engage this work, pushing me in my argument, dissertation structure and writing. Dr. Carol Anderson, on top of being an excellent friend and mentor, showed me how to draw connections between seemingly distant foreign policy actions and domestic issues.
