Besides household survey data collection, meta-analysis work is also done to evaluate wheat yield response to chemical nitrogen fertilizer. The manuscript of meta-analysis work is under writing.
Agronomic related research and pot experiments are also some of the research I have done in quzhou experimental station and able to improve my quality.
Visitation of different science and technology backyard and other agriculture related company to observe technologies have been practicing, testing and adopted in the area, which would help to identify best fit technologies that could be suggested for adoption in Africa
