Discusses some methods of growing cereal Crops in association with Stylosanthes in traditional Crop-livestock production systems in the subhumid zone of Nigeria. Examines effects of undersowing Stylo on sorghum yield and total fodder; land preparation on grain & fodder production; land history on...

This paper examines one instance in tropical West Africa where Development agents encouraged ley farming as a means of intensifying crop-livestock interactions and improving human welfare without adverse effects on the environment. The response of the farmer to the technology has been mixed. Adop...

Sorghum stover as ruminant feed in Ethiopia: Effect of cultivar, site of growth, pre-harvest leaf stripping and storage on yield and morphology
The adoption of `improved' sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) genotypes (i.e. drought tolerant, high grain-yielding and bird-resistant) by farmers in Ethiopia is low (Tilahun et al., 1992). Farmers prefer local, non-bird-resistant genotypes because their drought resistance and grain and stover...
