Alleviation of soil constraints to crop growth in the upland Alfisols and associated soil groups of the West African Sudan savannah by tied ridges
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 fertility,...
