Douxchamps, SabineRao, Idupulapati M.Peters, MichaelHoek, Rein van derSchmidt, AMartens, SPolanía Perdomo, José A.Mena Urbina, Martin A.Binder, Claudia R.Scholl, RQuintero, M.Kreuzer, M.Frossard, EmmanuelOberson, Astrid[Farm-scale tradeoffs between legume use as forage versus green manure: the case of Canavalia Brasiliensis]Farm-scale tradeoffs between legume use as forage versus green manure: the case of Canavalia Brasiliensis

In the process of developing an improved fallow system based on forage legumes, the potential interest of crop-livestock farmers in enhancing soil fertility restoration and dry-season feed supply was assessed during a socio-economic study on 11 farms of settled agro-pastoralists in the subhumid z...

The potential of 3-year-old grazed pastures of Stylosanthes hamata, Chamaecrista rotundifolia and Centrosema pascuorum to contribute to subsequent maize production was investigated in subhumid Nigeria in 1993. All three legume pastures had the ability to give better maize grain yields than native...

In order to contribute to improved utilisation of herbaceous legumes, in particular Centrosema macrocarpum and Stylosanthes guianensis for crop-livestock systems, the present study explored a number of management options to improve the effect of legumes on subsequent maize yield. The objectives o...

In a short-term improved fallow for crop-livestock farming systems of subhumid west Africa, rotational effects from a range of forage legumes on a subsequent maize crop were studied at two sites in south-west Nigeria. Nutrient (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) export from the fallows in the fo...

Nutrient import and export by forage legumes and their rotational effects on subsequent maize]Forage legumes for improved fallows in agropastoral systems of subhumid West Africa. III. Nutrient import and export by forage legumes and their rotational effects on subsequent maize

Improved forages play an important role in sustaining the livelihoods of small- and medium-scale farmers in the tropics, mainly as a result of their positive effects on livestock production and contribution to economic and environmental sustainability. However, in many regions of the tropics, the...
