Faecal excretion by ruminants and manure availability for crop production in semi-arid West Africa
Livestock manure is an important source of nutrients for crop production in semi-arid West Africa. An assessment of the potential of manure to sustain crop production calls for an estimation of the amounts of manure that could be produced and captured and the feed resources required to maintain live...
