The climate of the West African Sudan savannah (annual rainfall of 600–900 mm and a monomodal rainy season of 3–4 months) is characterized by frequent long- and short-term droughts. Crop growth in the Alfisols and associated soil groups is further constrained by soil compaction, low soil fertilit...

The effect of alley cropping with seven combinations of Acioa and Leucaena hedgerows and a control (no hedgerow) treatment on sequentially cropped maize and cowpea was studied in 1985 and 1986. The trial was carried out on an Alfisol in the humid zone of southwestern Nigeria. Hedgerows were estab...

Measurements of incident solar radiation were made in sequentially cropped maize (Zea mays L.) and cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.) planted between hedgerows of shrubs in an alley cropping pattern. The incident solar-radiation profile was examined and its effect on crop yield determined. The s...
