Tarawali, G.Mohamed-Saleem, M.A.Kaufmann, Ralph R. von[Legume-based cropping. A possible remedy to land tenure constraint to ruminant production in the subhumid zone of central Nigeria]Legume-based cropping. A possible remedy to land tenure constraint to ruminant production in the subhumid zone of central Nigeria

In the subhumid zone of Nigeria S. guianensis cv Cook, S. Guianensis cv Schofield and S. hamata cv Verano produced low dry matter yields. The role of P in limiting yields was investigated in a field experiment at Kurmin Biri, Kaduna State, Nigeria. Four levels of P<sub>2O<sub>5, zero, 40, 80 an...
