Evaluation of farmers crop production practices that determine Striga gesnerioides infestation of cowpea fields in Nigerian savannas
Striga gesnerioides is considered a major constraint to improving cowpea productivity in the semi arid region of Africa. A field survey was conducted in a farmer participatory process in 100 cowpea fields to determine farmers’ crop production practices that influence infestation by the parasitic wee...
