Climate shocks coupled with soil degradation are intensifying food insecurity and undermining agricultural sustainability in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), including Ghana. Integrated Soil Fertility Management (ISFM) offers a promising path to sustainable intensification by optimizing input use and enhancing the productivity of crops, such as maize. This poster presents evidence on the biophysical performance and risks of ISFM practices.
