Fodder tree legumes are valuable sources of high quality feed in the dry season when pasture productivity can be low and of poor quality. To ensure sustained fodder availability from Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de Wit and Gliricidia sepium (Jacq.) Walp in the dry season (November-February) the b...

Strategies for increased fodder production from Leucaena and Gliricidia to eliminate dry season feed shortages in the humid tropics
The effect of managing hedgerow foliage for mulch and fodder in Leucaena leucocephala and Gliricidia sepium alley farming systems on maize grain yield and soil chemical characteristics was studied in on-station and on-farm experiments in southwestern Nigeria. Yields increased as the proportion of...
