Notes
Agricultural uses of occult precipitation
Occult precipitation is the supply of water to soil or vegetation that is not rainfall and so is not measured by conventional raingauges.
The aim of this book is to facilitate the transfer of knowledge and experience about a natural resource that is not often exploited but is of potential importance in some of the least endowed regions of the world. The book has been written in layman's language and contains many figures and photos to illustrate the concepts.

Pest, diseases, and nutritional disorders of the common bean in Africa
Small-scale farmers are the principal producers of beans in most of Africa. They cultivate the crop in a complex array of systems, including the use of cultivate mixtures.
This publication is intended for workers in bean research and managers of development programmes to help them recognize in the field, the biotic and abiotic stresses that affect the crop in Africa. Accurate identification of constraints is a crucial first step towards assessing probable crop losses and taking appropriate control measures.
