The effects of cassava-based intercropping systems and rotations on physical and chemical properties of earthworm casts and the adjacent soil were studied on an Oxic Paleustalf in south-western Nigeria. Earthworm activity was greater with intercropping although it was not significantly affected b...
Twelve cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) genotypes were planted under natural field conditions for two different cropping seasons (wet and dry), in 1992 and 1993 at the research farm of the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), Ibadan, Nigeria.
