Despite the widespread use of Leucaena leucocephala in alley cropping systems, little information is available on the effect of different magagement practices on its nitrogen fixation. We studied the effects of three successive cuttings at 12 week intervals on nodulation and nitrogen fixation of ...

Biological N2 fixation (BNF) of hedgerow trees, organic mailer decomposition and nutrient transfer to associated food Crops are the major processes which should actualize the expected benefits of alley cropping systems. Leucaena leucocephala or Gliricid,a sepium can fix between 134 and 274 kg N2 ...

Result of long time alley cropping trials show that the inclusion of N2- fixing hedgerow species maintain higher levels of soil fertility than control treatment (no hedgerow) on high base status soils in the humid zone. Hedgerows contribute to nutrient cycling and higher faunal activity. With goo...

To date, the site-specific, mixed reports of the influence of hedgerows on crap yields provide little predictive insight into which type of tree/crop combination is most appropriate for a specific location. The Alley Farming Network for Tropical Africa was established in 1989. The objectives of t...
