Nangui Abrogoua University

The NAU is a public university where activities are related to research and training in the domains of biological, ecological, environmental and agronomic sciences.The research unit for sustainable soil management is involved in the ConneSSA project with PI Dr. Armand Kone, Agro-ecologist. People currently working in the team are Dr. Abobi A. Hebert, Agro-Pedologist (Use of animal and vegetal wastes as organic amendments), Dr. Assié K. Hervé, Agro Pedologist (Soil physical characteristics), M. Koffi Yao Bernard, PhD Student (Agro-ecology).
