Influence of within-and between-row mulching on soil temperature, soil moisture, root development and yield of maize (Zea mays L.) in a tropical soil
The effects of zonal mulching on soil physical characteristics and maize (Zea mays) production were investigated for six consecutive maize crops on a tropical Alfisol near Ibadan, Nigeria. Treatments consisted of complete mulch, inter-row mulch, row mulch, and a control. There were differences in so...
