The adoption decisions of subsistence multicrop producers regarding improved cassava variety (TMS 30572) in the humid tropical rainforest ecology of Southwestern Nigeria were analysed within a qualitative choice framework. The empirical results revealed that younger farmers producing marketable s...

An experiment to compare two methods for establishing different forage legumes in a pangolagrass (Digitaria decumbens) pasture, was carried out on a loamy clay soil in the Orinoco Delta, Venezuela. Fourteen legumes, including Centrosema plumieri and three cultivars of Stylosanthes guianensis, wer...

Tree litter fall was monitored for 2 years in two Terminalia ivorensis A. Chev. plantations in the humid tropics of southern Cameroon. The plantations were 6 and 17 years old when they were each thinned to two timber stand densities (TSD) and understorey food crops were introduced. Leaf litter wa...
