BACKGROUND INFORMATION.

        Fertilizer is the key component in the Agricultural
         production system in Africa particularly in Kenya.

        Cropping system with high yield target cannot be
         sustained until there is a balance between nutrients
         taken by the crop and those put in. (Rijpma and
         Jahiruddin 2004.)

        Mineral fertilizers and nutrient management strategies
         are crucial to such efficiencies. Importing food supplies
         adequate to offset these deficits will not, in all
         likelihood, be economically feasible (Mwangi 1995).

Statement of problem.


  In the Sub-Saharan Africa, low soil fertility
  has been identified as a threat to an increase
  in agricultural production mostly cereals in
  particular maize. This is mainly because of
  increased population pressure, that has lead
  to diminishing land holdings and poor
  methods of soil nutrient management.

Purpose of the study.

1. To investigate the response of nitrogen
   fertilizer timing on growth and yield
   components of maize.
2. To determine the gross margin of maize at
   different timing of nitrogen fertilizer
   application.
3. To measure the correlation between yields
   and different yield components.

Importance/significance of study

                • To improve soil nutrient management
            1     and to increase the marginal benefit
                  cost ratio to the producers.


                • This paper would act as a reference
            2     point to any cereal producer and
                  marketer of fertilizer. As a consultant.

Research questions.


   1. Does the management practices affect
      the yield and growth apart from use of
      fertilizer?
   2. What is could be the recommended
      application rates for maize to realize
      the marginal benefit?

Assumption of the study.
       ••••••••••••••••••••••••••
            •   It’s assumed that:-

       a) Fertilizer used will be the same for the plots/
          replicates.
       b) The seed type used will be viable and of the
          same hybrid in all the trials.
       c) That the weather conditions will be favorable
          for research.
       d) Cost of fertilizer transportation and it’s supply
          delays will affect the results of the research.

Study limitations.
       ••••••••••••••••••••••••••
        The weather may turn up to be unfavorable
         for the full results of research. i.e. leaching.

        Findings may have a limited application due
         to high fertilizer costs and demand. E.g.
         Eutrophication.

        Time and scope of the study may not allow
         the replication of the same study.

Summary and organization.

            •••••••••••••••••••••••••
           The study will experiment on the effects and
    economic impact of fertilizer use in maize output price
    and the decision making of the household on fertilizer
    use in relation to the marginal benefits cost ratio. The
    study will be organized in phases and a period of six to
    seven month whereby the data will be collected, recorded
    and analyzed for presentation and then recommended for
    adoption by farmers.

justification

        One important explanation for the soil
        degradation in developing world is the failure
        to provide sufficient access to available
        resources and proper soil nutrients
        management. To increase land productivity in
        these areas, soil nutrient management is the
        key role to turn the situation the way round.

Justification.
                          cont’d
Theoretically the decision to adopt mineral
fertilizer is determined by the interaction
between agronomics response and the nutrient
grain price ratio, agronomic response in turn is
determined by soil characteristics and climatic
factors. If the marginal agronomic response at
a level of 0kg/ha of applied nutrient is greater
than the nutrient –grain price ratio in theory the
farmer should adopt the fertilizer.
Objectives.


1. To determine the economic impact of fertilizer
   use on the growth and yield of maize crop on
   output price.
2. To investigate the response of nitrogen fertilizer
   timing on growth and yield components of maize
3. To determine the gross margin of maize at
   different timing of nitrogen fertilizer application.
4. To measure the correlation between yields and
   different yield components.

                                              Objectives.
hypothesis

   Ho: maize yield is directly affected by the rate
    of fertilizer application and thus the price
    product in the market oriented economy.

   Ha: maize yield is not directly affected by the
    rate of fertilizer application and so is the product
    price in the market oriented economy.

EXPECTED CONTRIBUTION


 The result of the study will contribute
  towards unraveling the complexities under
  laying the households decisions on soil
  nutrient management and output price,
  with a view of suggesting possible way for
  policy, research and extensions to help
  increase the use of soil replenishing.


                             CONTRIBUTION.
Literature review.


Maize is a versatile crop, growing across a range of
agro ecological zones. With its large number of
varieties differing in period to maturity, maize has
a wide range of tolerance to temperature
conditions. It is essentially a crop of warm regions
where moisture is adequate. The crop requires an
average daily temperature of at least 20 C for
adequate growth and development.
Cont’d

Soil fertility must be managed more
efficiently if Africa is to overcome its
food-production problems and to secure its
food security policies. Although causes of
food insecurity and poverty are numerous,
the decline in soil fertility with resultant
decreasing crop yields is generally
highlighted and stressed (Ahmed, J.K.,
W.P. Falcon, et al C.P. Timmer. 1989).
Cont’d

In light of these considerations, many observers have
called for increases in sub-Saharan fertilizer consumption
of 15% or more per annum (Mwangi, W. 1995). Based on
the experience of other developing world countries, where
aggregate fertilizer consumption has increased far more
rapidly than in sub-Saharan Africa, such expansion rates
will not be easy to achieve in an economically efficient
fashion (Carve and Ownby, 1995).
location

The study will be carried out at the UEAB research
and demonstration farm in Nandi county. The area
lies at latitude 020’N longitudes 35’ 60’E at latitude
of 1981M above sea level. Ecologically the zone is
classified as AEZ 3.

Proposal 2012

  • 1. PRESENTER MULAMA KENNEDY MASINDE. Dr. Clive Mairura supervisor. 8/06/2012 Mulama - agronomics of fertilizer 1
  • 2. Topic title. ECONOMIC IMPACT OF NITROGEN FERTILIZER USE ON MAIZE OUTPUT PRICE. 2 8/06/2012 Mulama - agronomics of fertilizer
  • 3. BACKGROUND INFORMATION.  Fertilizer is the key component in the Agricultural production system in Africa particularly in Kenya.  Cropping system with high yield target cannot be sustained until there is a balance between nutrients taken by the crop and those put in. (Rijpma and Jahiruddin 2004.)  Mineral fertilizers and nutrient management strategies are crucial to such efficiencies. Importing food supplies adequate to offset these deficits will not, in all likelihood, be economically feasible (Mwangi 1995). Mulama - agronomics of fertilizer 3 8/06/2012
  • 4. Statement of problem. In the Sub-Saharan Africa, low soil fertility has been identified as a threat to an increase in agricultural production mostly cereals in particular maize. This is mainly because of increased population pressure, that has lead to diminishing land holdings and poor methods of soil nutrient management. Mulama - agronomics of fertilizer 8/06/2012 4
  • 5. Purpose of the study. 1. To investigate the response of nitrogen fertilizer timing on growth and yield components of maize. 2. To determine the gross margin of maize at different timing of nitrogen fertilizer application. 3. To measure the correlation between yields and different yield components. 5 8/06/20 12
  • 6. Importance/significance of study • To improve soil nutrient management 1 and to increase the marginal benefit cost ratio to the producers. • This paper would act as a reference 2 point to any cereal producer and marketer of fertilizer. As a consultant. 8/06/2012 Mulama - agronomics of fertilizer 6
  • 7. Research questions. 1. Does the management practices affect the yield and growth apart from use of fertilizer? 2. What is could be the recommended application rates for maize to realize the marginal benefit? 8/06/2012 Mulama - agronomics of fertilizer 7
  • 8. RESEARCH QUESTIONS 3. Do the management practices affect the yield and growth apart from use of fertilizer? 4. Are the real fertilizer prices and real price product driven by technical change in market oriented economy? 8/06/2012 Mulama - agronomics of fertilizer 8
  • 9. Assumption of the study. •••••••••••••••••••••••••• • It’s assumed that:- a) Fertilizer used will be the same for the plots/ replicates. b) The seed type used will be viable and of the same hybrid in all the trials. c) That the weather conditions will be favorable for research. d) Cost of fertilizer transportation and it’s supply delays will affect the results of the research. Mulama - agronomics of fertilizer 8/06/2012 9
  • 10. Study limitations. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••  The weather may turn up to be unfavorable for the full results of research. i.e. leaching.  Findings may have a limited application due to high fertilizer costs and demand. E.g. Eutrophication.  Time and scope of the study may not allow the replication of the same study. Mulama - agronomics of fertilizer 8/06/2012 10
  • 11. Definition of operational terms. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• • MBCR-marginal benefit cost ratio is the total of the partial budget analysis. This is the ration of the marginal benefits and costs. • An Agro-ecological Zone is a land resource mapping unit, defined in terms of climate, landform and soils, and/or land cover, and having a specific range of potentials and constraints for land use. (FAO 1996). • MB- man’s day of labour calculated 25 shs per day. • Economic cost- the sacrifice involved in performing an activity. Expressed as total of opportunity cost. Mulama - agronomics of fertilizer 8/06/2012 11
  • 12. Summary and organization. ••••••••••••••••••••••••• The study will experiment on the effects and economic impact of fertilizer use in maize output price and the decision making of the household on fertilizer use in relation to the marginal benefits cost ratio. The study will be organized in phases and a period of six to seven month whereby the data will be collected, recorded and analyzed for presentation and then recommended for adoption by farmers. 8/06/2012 Mulama - agronomics of fertilizer 12
  • 13. justification One important explanation for the soil degradation in developing world is the failure to provide sufficient access to available resources and proper soil nutrients management. To increase land productivity in these areas, soil nutrient management is the key role to turn the situation the way round. 8/06/2012 Mulama - agronomics of fertilizer 13
  • 14. Justification. cont’d Theoretically the decision to adopt mineral fertilizer is determined by the interaction between agronomics response and the nutrient grain price ratio, agronomic response in turn is determined by soil characteristics and climatic factors. If the marginal agronomic response at a level of 0kg/ha of applied nutrient is greater than the nutrient –grain price ratio in theory the farmer should adopt the fertilizer.
  • 15. Objectives. 1. To determine the economic impact of fertilizer use on the growth and yield of maize crop on output price. 2. To investigate the response of nitrogen fertilizer timing on growth and yield components of maize 3. To determine the gross margin of maize at different timing of nitrogen fertilizer application. 4. To measure the correlation between yields and different yield components. Objectives.
  • 16. hypothesis  Ho: maize yield is directly affected by the rate of fertilizer application and thus the price product in the market oriented economy.  Ha: maize yield is not directly affected by the rate of fertilizer application and so is the product price in the market oriented economy. 8/06/2012 Mulama - agronomics of fertilizer 16 Hypothesis
  • 17. EXPECTED CONTRIBUTION  The result of the study will contribute towards unraveling the complexities under laying the households decisions on soil nutrient management and output price, with a view of suggesting possible way for policy, research and extensions to help increase the use of soil replenishing. CONTRIBUTION.
  • 18. Literature review. Maize is a versatile crop, growing across a range of agro ecological zones. With its large number of varieties differing in period to maturity, maize has a wide range of tolerance to temperature conditions. It is essentially a crop of warm regions where moisture is adequate. The crop requires an average daily temperature of at least 20 C for adequate growth and development.
  • 19. Cont’d Soil fertility must be managed more efficiently if Africa is to overcome its food-production problems and to secure its food security policies. Although causes of food insecurity and poverty are numerous, the decline in soil fertility with resultant decreasing crop yields is generally highlighted and stressed (Ahmed, J.K., W.P. Falcon, et al C.P. Timmer. 1989).
  • 20. Cont’d In light of these considerations, many observers have called for increases in sub-Saharan fertilizer consumption of 15% or more per annum (Mwangi, W. 1995). Based on the experience of other developing world countries, where aggregate fertilizer consumption has increased far more rapidly than in sub-Saharan Africa, such expansion rates will not be easy to achieve in an economically efficient fashion (Carve and Ownby, 1995).
  • 21. location The study will be carried out at the UEAB research and demonstration farm in Nandi county. The area lies at latitude 020’N longitudes 35’ 60’E at latitude of 1981M above sea level. Ecologically the zone is classified as AEZ 3. (KARI-2009)
