The effects of alley cropping with Leucaena leucocephala and of different management practices on the productivity of maize and soil chemical properties in lowland coastal Kenya
The effects of leucaena hedgerows, mulching with leucaena foliage (0.50 and 100 percent of harvested foliage), cowpea intercropping and addition of dairy cattle slurry (55 t ha-1 per maize crop) on the yield of maize from a sandy soil were assessed. The four-year results from five maize crops are re...
