Soil litter dynamics and N use in a leucaena (Leucaena leucocephalaLam. (de Witt)) alley cropping system in southwestern Nigeria

The recovery of a single application of leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala) leaf N (78 kg N ha−1) in a maize crop, the hedgerow and the top 10 cm soil of a leucaena alley cropping system was measured for 236 d through the use of 15N labeled residues.
