Effect of Guatamala grass (Tripsacum laxum) mulch applications on soil moisture conservation and soil fertility status
Mulch applications generally have a large beneficial effect on the productivity of important perennial cash crops in the East African Highlands such as bananas (Musa spp.) and coffee (Coffea spp.), due to the conservation of soil moisture and the improvement of soil fertility. However, the availabil...
