Trials have been conducted at two sites in the subhumid zone of Nigeria to investigate the influence of weed control on seed quantity and quality using three tropical forage legumes, Centrosema pascuorum cv Cavalcade, Chamaecrista rotundifolia cv Wynn and Stylosanthes hamata cv Verano. Manaual we...

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...

The available world collection consisting of 257 accessions of the tropical pasture legume Centrosema brasilianum (L.) Benth. was assessed between 1993 and 1995 in northern Nigeria to complement existing knowledge on the genetic diversity of this species and to identify accessions with high agron...

The productivity and nutritive value of Chamaecrista rotundifolia cv. Wynn, Centrosema pascuorum cv. Cavalcade, Stylosanthes guianensis cv. Pucallpa and S. hamata cv. Verano as affected by single superphosphate fertilisation (SSP) and weed control were measured during the dry season in subhumid N...

A short-term improved fallow system based on forage legumes for enhancing crop and livestock components of mixed farming systems was tested in the subhumid zone of West Africa. As part of the evaluation, the ability of 11 legume species (Centrosema macrocarpum, C. pubescens, Stylosanthes guianens...

The potential of 5 forage legume accessions was assessed under cutting, as alternatives to Stylosanthes hamata cVerano for use in dry season pastures (fodder banks) in Nigeria. Measurements included dry matter yield, nutritive value (crude protein and phosphorus), seed production, drought toleran...

Crop-livestock systems are very important both in terms of area and contribution to people’s livelihoods in the Ethiopian highlands. However, a common problem in these systems is low livestock and crop productivity, which is partly caused by water scarcity and environmental degradation. As water ...

Relative palatability and some agronomic traits were studied for nine legumes including Aeschynomene histrix, Centrosema brasilianum (two accessions), Centrosema pascuorum, Chamaecrista rotundifolia, Stylosanthes guianensis (two accessions) and Stylosanthes hamata (two accessions). All species we...
