The Joint Vertisol Project which, by its nature and intention has dealt with natural resource research and development, has inherently addressed the complexity of factors and interactions among them. This has led to the two dimension strategy of choice or prioritisation: 1) issues related to rese...


Abebe, M.Jutzi, S.C.[The joint project on Vertisols management retrospect and prospects]The joint project on Vertisols management retrospect and prospects

Presents papers and abstracts on the management of vertisols in sub-Saharan Africa and other parts of the world. Overviews the importance, distribution, agroclimatology and properties of vertisols and the Indian Vertisol technology experience. Reviews resource assessment and management and highli...

The weed seed bank under seven fallow tree species was analysed in size and composition five years after tree establishment. The seed bank was lower in Enterolobium cyclocarpum fallows than in the other tree fallows at both 0-5 and 5-10 cm depths. Nuclea latifolia and Terminalia superba tree fall...

Weed seed bank size and composition were analysed in 1995 and 1996 in maize fields mulched with pruning from Gliricidia sepium, Leucaena leucocephala, and Senna siamea in South Western Nigeria. Plots mulched with pruning from the three trees had a lower weed seed bank in the first year of croppin...

Cutting and carrying of mulch from established tree plots is an alternative to in situ mulch in agroforestry systems. Through the cut-and-carry method, the undesirable e ects of tree-crop competition characterized by in situ mulching can be avoided. An economic evaluation of the cut-and-carry met...

Investigates the effects of improved surface drainage on the productivity of Vertisols in a wheat-and-chickpea cropping trial conducted in 1987 at ILCA;s Debre Zeit research site in the Ethiopian highlands. Chickpea plots were subjected to four irrigation treatments, viz, no irrigation, irrigatio...

On the basis of an analysis of 2127 reports on animal feed research and development from seven national programmes in eastern and southern Africa, this paper intends to give a profile of animal feed research in the area since meaningful records have been available, to establish major trends in th...

The use of agroforestry systems in which pruning from trees is used to mulch the companion crops is an important area of research in the tropics. However, previous studies mostly evaluated the contribution of mulch to soil improvement and rarely examined the effect of mulch on weeds. Field experi...

Leaf extracts and mulch from 14 multipurpose trees were used to test their effects on maize germination, growth and yield. Maize germination was significantly reduced by leaf extracts of all species with increasing extract concentration. The most drastic reductions were caused by Gliricidia sepiu...
