Cover Letter We Have Prepared the Following Original Manuscript Entitled ''Tied-Ridging and Soil Inputs Enhance Small-Scale Maize Productivity and Profitability Under Erratic Rainfall Conditions in Central Kenya'' for Consideration in Your Esteemed Journal. The Manuscript is Original and Has Not Been Published Nor is it Under Consideration for Publication in Any Other Journal. This Study Evaluated the Effects of Tied Ridging and Selected Soil Fertility Inputs on Biophysical and Economic Performance of Small-Scale Maize Production in Central Kenya, Including Soil Water Content, Maize Yields, and Economic Returns. Erratic Rainfall Patterns Characterized by Frequent Droughts and Prolonged Dry Spells Contribute to Unpredictable Crop Yields in Several Seasons, Which is Exacerbated by Climate Change Patterns in the SSA Region. Therefore, Adequate Soil Conservation and Crop Management
