Seedlings of Acacia auriculiformis A. Cunn. ex. Benth., Albizia lebbeck (L.) Benth., Gliricidia sepium (Jac.) Walp and Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de Wit. were inoculated with an ectomycorrhizal (Boletus suillus (L. ex. Fr.) or indigenous vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungi in a low P s...

The recovery of a single application of leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala) leaf N (78 kg N ha−1) in a maize crop, the hedgerow and the top 10 cm soil of a leucaena alley cropping system was measured for 236 d through the use of 15N labeled residues. The leucaena-derived-N (LDN) was followed in the ...

Agroforestry systems involving leaf removal for animal fodder may result in rapid depletion of soil fertility. The purpose of this research was to determine if the effects of leaf removal on soil fertility parameters and maize yield in aLeucaena leucocephalaalley cropping system could be reversed...

La inclusión de una leguminosa apropiada en la vegetación de las praderas tropicales y la corrección de las deficiencias minerales en la nutrición de las plantas y de los animales, contribuiría a desarrollar una mayor producción ganadera. Muchas de las leguminosas tropicales, son de origen americ...

Population pressure has diminished the role of the traditional bush fallow system in restoring the fertility of depleted soils following several years of cultivation in the derived savanna of southwest Nigeria. The search for alternative fallow systems led to the development of alley cropping usi...
