Diels, J.Aihou, K.Iwuafor, E.Merckx, R.Vanlauwe, Bernard[Evaluating options for soil organic carbon maintenance under intensive cropping in the West African savanna using the Rothamsted Carbon (RothC) model]Evaluating options for soil organic carbon maintenance under intensive cropping in the West African savanna using the Rothamsted Carbon (RothC) model

Data from the derived savanna zone in southern Benin indicated that some intensive cropping systems (maize/Cajanus and maize/Mucuna relays; maize/cotton with Senna siamea hedgerows) returned about 12 Mg DM ha-1 year-1 of plant biomass to the soil. This compared favorably with the 8 Mg DM ha-1 yea...

Crop response, tree biomass production and changes in soil fertility characteristics were monitored in a long-term (1986–2006) alley-cropping trial in Ibadan, Nigeria. The systems included two alley cropping systems with Leucaena leucocephala and Senna siamea on the one hand and a control (no-tre...

The contribution of the soil scientist to land use planning mainly consists in the identification of land units and the assessment of their soil-related opportunities and limitations for various land utilization types. With a land use scenario study for the Flemish region in Belgium as an example...


Diels, J.Orshoven, J. vanVanclooster, M.Feyen, J.[Using soil map and simulation modeling for the analysis of land use scenarios]Using soil map and simulation modeling for the analysis of land use scenarios

The IITA in its research for sustainable soil fertility management has passed through several stages during which legume-based systems were always at the forefront. Alley cropping has N yields of more than 200 kg ha-1 with 50% N2 fixation. In the case of Mucuna cover cropping, the ecological bene...
