We conducted field experiments over 2 years on two acid soils of southern Cameroon to test whether efficient uptake and use of phosphorus (P) from less available sources by grain legume genotypes could benefit subsequent rotational maize. We grew two crops each year. For the first crop we grew 4 ...

Phosphorus benefits from grain-legume crops to subsequent maize grown on acid soils of southern Cameroon
Nitrogen (N) has been gradually depleted from West African soils and now poses serious threats to food production. Many ways of increasing N supply (e.g. judicious use of inorganic fertilizers and nitrogen-fixing plants) have been tried in West African farming systems. Herbaceous and woody legume...

Two crop rotation cycles were evaluated to determine the effect of cropping systems and N
fertilization on the yield and efficiency of N in maize. Maize was grown on plots which had previously
supported monocrops of two genotypes each of soybean (TGx 1448-2E and SAMSOY-2) and cowpea
(IT 96D-724 a...

Crop response, tree biomass production and changes in soil fertility characteristics were monitored in a long-term (1986–2002) alley-cropping trial in Ibadan, Nigeria. The systems included two alley cropping systems with Leucaena leucocephala and Senna siamea on the one hand and a control (no-tre...
