Forage legume-cereal systems: Improvement of soil fertility and agricultural productivity with special reference to sub-Saharan Africa
This paper looks at the applicability of three management oriented simulation models that are being evaluated by the environmental Sciences Division at ILCA. Basically the three models (CERES-maize NITROSIM and SCUAF) have been designed to simulate crop growth and development and crop yields, as ...
