The restorative ability of herbaceous (Psophocarpus palustris, Pueraria phaseoloides) and woody (Leucaena leucocephala, Senna siamea, Acacia leptocarpa, Acacia auriculiformis) legume species and of natural regrowth was studied on an eroded and compacted Oxic Paleustalf in southwestern Nigeria. Co...

The potential of planted leguminous cover crop fallow as an alternative to the natural regrowth fallow for sustaining the productivity of low activity clay (LAC) soils in the tropics as the fallow period shortens was tested at Ibadan in the forest-savanna zone of southwestern Nigeria. The study, ...


Tian, G.Kolawole, G.O.Salako, F.K.Kang, B.[An improved cover cropfallow system for sustainable management of low activity clay soils of the tropics]An improved cover cropfallow system for sustainable management of low activity clay soils of the tropics

Leguminous cover crops have the potential of making cropping systems in the tropics sustainable if they would not deplete resources such as soil water and nutrients to the detriment of companion crops. Therefore, a study was carried out at Alabata, Ibadan, southwestern Nigeria, to evaluate the ef...

To rehabilitate a degraded Alfisol at Ibadan, southwestern Nigeria, Senna siamea (non-N-fixing legume tree), Leucaena leucocephala, and Acacia leptocarpa (N-fixing legume trees) were planted in 1989, and Acacia auriculiformis (N-fixing legume tree) in 1990. Pueraria phaseoloides (a cover crop) an...

Evaluation of soil aggregate stability under managed fallow systems is very relevant in the assessment of their agricultural sustainability. It is also important to identify the parameters that are most responsive to the effects of these fallow systems on aggregate stability. This study was carri...

Yields of intercropped oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) and cocoyam (Xanthosoma sagittifolium) were assessed at Okomu (6°25'N, 5°12'E), near Benin City, southern Nigeria. Yields were assessed during the fifth and sixth year after the establishment of oil palm. The annual yield of fresh fruit bunches ...

Soil erosion, measured in field runoff plots, was correlated with several rainfall erosivity indices. Erosion was measured on field plots established on a Typic Paleudult in southeastern Nigeria. Several erosivity indices were computed from a daily recording rain gauge sited in vicinity of the ru...
