When farmers around Ghana's Lake Volta were told they could stop using fertilisers and often double their yields, they must have thought they were being taken for a ride. But simply by using a single application of compost rather than three of fertilisers they have improved yields all round.
What's more farmers were not using protective clothing so now they are free of the skin and stomach comaplaints that were previously so common.
