Abstract
In Northern Benin, maize is the most important staple food, but its productivity is negatively affected by low inherent soil fertility, soil degradation, and by recurrent droughts exacerbated by climate variability and change. In this study, we combined mineral fertilizer and organic manure to evaluate cropping adaptation options to climate variability in Northern Benin.
