Since herbicides are not widely used in cowpea and soybean at the present time, cultural and manual methods are important means of weed control in the tropics. Field experiments were conducted at Ibadan (in western Nigeria) to evaluate the effect of plant density, spatial arrangement and plant ty...

In Indonesia, annual growth rates for cassava production and yield from 1961 to 2000 were 0.81% and 1.35%, respectively. However, the harvested area decreased at an average annual rate of 0.61%. The average yield of about 12 tonnes of fresh roots/ha is much below the potential yield of 20 to 40 t...

Since many farmers in the tropics plant crops in association, a study was conducted to determine the capacity of corn and edible beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) grown alone or in association to extract N, P and K. The effects of three soil types and three weed species on the absorptive capacity of the...
