Influence of cereal legume rotation on Striga control and maize grain yield in farmers fields in the northern Guinea Savanna of Nigeria
On-farm trials were conducted in 2001, 2002, and 2003 in the northern Guinea savanna of Nigeria to evaluate integrated Striga hermonthica control measures under farmermanaged conditions. These included intercropping a Striga-resistant maize variety with cowpea for 3 years and also cropping this maiz...
