The economic and phosphorus-related effects of precision feeding and forage management in North Cameroon

摘要：

Introduction Background Structural best management practices have been implemented throughout the north province of Cameroon in an effort to reduce phosphorus (P) losses to the reservoir.Yet long-term water quality control efforts within north Cameroon are hindered by continuous P build-up in the soils resulting from dairy farm P imports exceeding exports.Addressing the P imbalance problems and maintaining economic viability of the farms requires a system-level redesign of farm management.One possible innovative strategy,precision feed management ( PFM ),reduces soil-P build-up by limiting feed and fertilizer purchases,and increasing high-quality homegrown forage production.
