Grain legumes are particularly attractive to low input systems of agriculture because they take inert nitrogen from the air and (through root nodule bacteria known as rhizobia) transform it into proteins in a process that leaves no carbon footprint. The N2Africa project is delivering inoculant te...

Low feed quality, short periods of grazing each day and the need to search for forage are all constraints on cattle productivity in most parts of Africa. From the literature reviewed, it was observed that many factors affect the intake and utilization of feeds and that no single factor controls i...

Cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp] is a major food legume the semi-arid region of Sub-Saharan Africa. Recently, two parasitic weeds, Striga [Striga gesnerioides (Willd.) Vatke] and alectra [Alectra vogelii Benth.] have become a major threat to cowpea cultivation in this region. A landrace of co...
