1. Leucaena hedgerow intercropping and cattle manure application in the Ethiopian highlands. I. Decomposition and nutrient release

Author:
Lupwayi, N.Z.; Haque, I.
Source:
Biology and fertility of soils 1999 v.28 no.2 pp. 182-195
ISSN:

Subject:
Leucaena leucocephala; soil amendments; crop yield; phosphorus; nutrient uptake; nutrient balance; degradation; alley cropping; Zea mays; quantitative analysis; soil organic matter; calcium; potassium; nitrogen fertilizers; Leucaena pallida; nitrogen; nutrient availability; cattle manure; magnesium; Alfisols; Ethiopia
Abstract:
... A litter bag technique was used to study the decomposition and release of N, P, K, Ca, and Mg from Leucaena leucocephala and L. pallida prunings and cattle manure in a hedgerow intercropping trial conducted in the Ethiopian highlands. Hedgerow intercropping (also called alley cropping or alley farming) is an agroforestry system in which trees are grown in dense hedges between alleys where short-cy ...

Abstract:
... The effects of Leucaena leucocephala and L. pallida prunings and cattle manure on maize nutrient uptake and yield were investigated in a hedgerow intercropping trial in the Ethiopian highlands. Hedgerow intercropping (also called alley cropping) is an agroforestry system in which trees are grown in dense hedges between alleys where short-cycle crops are grown. The hedges are pruned periodically du ...

Abstract:
... Balances between nutrients applied or mineralized and nutrients removed in maize grain and stover were calculated in a hedgerow intercropping experiment in which Leucaena leucocephala and L. pallida prunings and cattle manure were applied. Hedgerow intercropping (also called alley cropping) is an agroforestry system in which trees are grown in dense hedges between alleys where short-cycle crops ar ...
