An experiment was conducted on an Ultisol at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) High Rainfall Station, Onne, in the humid forest zone of south-eastern Nigeria. The objective of the study was to define groups of multipurpose trees using multiple variables to select material...

Multipurpose tree selection for silvopastoral systems on acid Ultisols. The effect of grass competition on early growth of tree and shrub species
This paper discusses why c rop residues are important for the farmer, how dual-purpose groundnut varieties can make a difference in the smallholder farming system; a multidisciplinary approach to investigate the agronomic aspects of dual-purpose groundnut varieties as well as the complementary as...

Selecting groundnut varieties for crop-livestock systems? do not forget the farmers' cattle!
Current cereal breeding programmes at commodity-oriented research centres emphasize grain yields with little consideration for fodder yield and quality. In farming systems with livestock, the use of varieties with high-grain yields but low stover yields may be rejected by farmers. This study inve...
