Mixed farming systems, combining crop and livestock activities, hold considerable promise for improved agricultural productivity and environmental conservation in semi-arid West Africa. Increasing population pressure and climatic changes have combined to render long-fallow periods less feasible a...

Night corralling of livestock directly in crop fields during the dry season contributes to nutrient cycling for the benefit of crops. Rangeland grazing and corralling livestock on selected croplands result in a spatial transfer of organic matter and nutrients from rangelands to the corralling sit...
