Effects of methods of seedbed preparation and mulching on the growth and yield of white yam (dioscorea rotundata) on an ultisol in south-east Nigeria
Effects of ridge and flat planting of yam, with and without surface mulch, on soil moisture and temperature regimes, root and shoot development, tuber yield and yield components were investigated for an Ultisol near Port Hartcourt in southeast Nigeria. Mulching slightly improved soil moisture regime...
