We aimed to quantify the relative impact of slashing, mulching, burning and cropping on surface casting by earthworms and whether effects were due to treatments per-se or to the changes in soil temperature and water content they may induce. Surface cast production was monitored during two maize c...

Greenhouse and field studies were conducted to determine the effect of earthworm casts on the production of maize and cowpea. In pot experiments with mixtures of soil and casts, shoot and root dry matter (OM) of maize and cowpea increased with increasing proportion of casts. Shoot OM of cowpea an...

Earthworms can have positive effects upon crop growth in the tropics. If soils are to be managed sustainably, then more attention should be paid to the effects of cultivation and cropping practices upon earthworms. When forest vegetation is cleared, slashed, burned and land is tilled and cultivat...
