Dear Friends and Colleagues,

The new paper Long-term Conservation Agriculture improves water properties and crop productivity in a Lixisol” shows how important it is to research not only short term aspects of cropping systems but also document what happens in the long-term which helps in our overall understanding.

The summary was made possible by many donors and I would like to singly out USAID who funded the "Africa Research in Sustainable Intensification for the Next Generation" and the European Union who funded the "Sustainable Intensification of Smallholder Farming Systems in Zambia project" (SIFAZ) which are both  gratefully acknowledged.

May you enjoy the read!

Christian
