A study was conducted in the humid-forest, forest-savanna, and Guinea savanna zones of West Africa from 1993 to 1999 to examine the effect of managing crop residues from cereal-legume cropping systems for mulch and fodder for sheeIncreasing the proportion of total crop residues produced from a un...

Forage and seed yields of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) are considered to be joint products by crop-livestock farmers, but forage yield and quality are not currently part of selection criteria in groundnut improvement programs in West Africa. Variations in forage and seed yields of 38 late-maturin...

Information is scanty on seasonal changes in the yield and quality of forage legumes adapted to the West African savannas. Two experiments were conducted from 1992-1994 in the derived savanna zone of West Africa to determine the dry matter (DM) yield and 48-h in sacco DM digestibility of 17 acces...
