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 production based on zero-grazed Napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum CV Bana) fed to crossbred Bos taurus X Bos indicus cows has been introduced to tropical sub-humid East Africa. Leucaena leucocephala forage offers a cheap convenient source of supplementry protein. Thirty-six Ayr...
