Land degradation, low agricultural productivity and poverty are major problems in Ethiopia. The existing resources cannot support the growing human and livestock population. Currently, there is an increasing interest among researchers and development experts in leguminous multipurpose trees and s...
Eleven accessions taken from Leucaena leucocephala, L. revolutal, L. pallida, L. diversifolia and L. leucocephala × L. diversifolia hybrids (leucaena), together with 3 accessions of Calliandra calothyrsus (calliandra), were evaluated on an acidic, nitosol soil in the tropical highland region of S...
The genus Leucaena is one of the most important sources of multipurpose trees and shrubs for use in farming systems in the African tropics and subtropics. In previous studies, Kashsay and Tothill (1995) identified the superior performance of Leucaena pallida and L. diversifolia as highly producti...
Eleven Sesbania sesban and three S. goetzei accessions were evaluated for dry matter (DM) yield in response to phosphorus (P) application and fodder quality on an acidic Nitosol at Soddo, in the Ethiopian highlands. The soil at this site is known to be P deficient and to have high ability to fix ...
