Journal Article 1989

Autor: Leeuw, P.N. de Mureithi, J.G.

Discusses a practical non-destructive sampling procedure of experimental Napier grass populations (Pennisetum purpureum) which is determined by the number of stools per row of planted Napier grass, the number of tillers per stool and the number, height and thickness of each tiller, the latter bei...

The effects of leucaena hedgerows, mulching with leucaena foliage (0.50 and 100 percent of harvested foliage), cowpea intercropping and addition of dairy cattle slurry (55 t ha-1 per maize crop) on the yield of maize from a sandy soil were assessed. The four-year results from five maize crops are...

Inadequate supply of fodder is a serious constraint to the potentially-promising smallholder-dairy production system in coastal Kenya. Alley farming could be an approach to addressing this problem. A study of forage production based on Napier grass and leucaena in an alley cropping system was con...

Smallholder dairy development in coastal lowland Kenya is mainly constrained by inadequate nutrition. Since the early 1960s, high quality forages have been introduced to improve feeding of dairy cattle in the region. A study was conducted to assess the contribution made by these forages to dairy ...

The Kenya coastal region has a large, unsatisfied market for milk and dairy products. Between 1988 and 1994, a research project, closely linked to extension, identified and addressed technical constraints that limit smallholder dairy Development in the region. Methodological approaches are outlin...
