Earthworm surface cast production and nutrient turnover through casts were measured for 3 years in a 17-year-old timber plantation in southern Cameroon after selective reduction to two timber stand densities (TSDs) and understorey cropping with plantain and tannia. Neither understorey cropping no...

Deforestation in the humid tropics poses an increasing threat to natural forests and future timber supplies. Smallholder slash and burn farming and timber extraction are the major causes of deforestation in the Congo basin. Therefore, the feasibility of an alternative to slash and burn, the combi...

Data are presented for termite assemblages across an anthropogenic disturbance gradient in the humid forest zone of West and Central Africa. Sampling was by standardised 100m × 2m transects in: primary forest, several ages of regenerating forest, agroforestry plots, short fallows, mixed food crop...

Earthworms can have positive effects upon crop growth in the tropics. If soils are to be managed sustainably, then more attention should be paid to the effects of cultivation and cropping practices upon earthworms. When forest vegetation is cleared, slashed, burned and land is tilled and cultivat...
