New research from @WUR, @PlantAfrican and @IITA_CGIAR finds that #intercrop performance is optimized when #legume planting is timed so their peak growth occurs after #maize harvest

Read the study 👉 https://t.co/D6BZh1qbcG

It takes:

👩‍🌾60 days to cultivate a hectare of land using a hand hoe
🐄3 days with draught animal power
🚜less than a day using a tractor-powered precision seeder

See how #AgriculturalMechanization has evolved over time.

Well done to Oliver and team! 🎉

💚🚜For the love of Agricultural Mechanization I can do this all day. Never underestimate the power of a Two Wheel Tractor 🚜#2WT. If you ask me anytime I'll say "Agriculture is Sexy, it attracts everyone and it never fails"😍.

[ACT NETWORK @ACTillage]

Mechanization requires a long-term commitment. In many countries where mechanization has occurred, financial support has been provided to farmers through credit or direct grants to procure machinery and equipment from public institutions. Read more at https://t.co/G6lpMfbKn6

@MatongoJay @CIMMYT @ZRBFZIM @bramaccimmyt @sgfonteyne @UNDPZimbabwe @rememush @dorcasmatangi Check my older tweets, where I shared pictures of the content of 30 traps. 712 moths captured on 24/08 (picture attached again here), 338 on 16/08 etc. By the way, 98% of the pictures I post are taken by myself in the field...

[Frédéric Baudron @FBaudron]

And a massive thank you to @rememush who worked days & nights (including week-ends) to harvest these plots (with all measures of #SocialDistancing) before #lockdownzimbabwe. We would not have this data without his dedication to @CIMMYT & @ZRBFZIM. Thank you Oliver!

Note the good ground following ability of each unit moving independently.
