| description | Mulching of yam seed beds reduced soil temperature and improved emergence, time of emergence, yield per hill and the total yield of Dioscorea rotundata yams on a sandy soil in Western Nigeria. Comparison of mounds with ridged and flat seed beds showed that these different treatments had no significant effect on tuber yield. Planting about six -weeks before the onset of the rains and the use of mulch is indicated as a good technique to obtain high yield. |

Lal, R. soil temperature yams mulching Mulching of yam seed beds reduced soil temperature and improved emergence, time of emergence, yield per hill and the total yield of Dioscorea rotundata yams on a sandy soil in Western Nigeria. Comparison of mounds with ridged and flat seed beds showed that these different treatments had no significant effect on tuber yield. Planting about six -weeks before the onset of the rains and the use of mulch is indicated as a good technique to obtain high yield. L'utilisation de paillis dans les lits de plantation reduit la temperature du sol et favorise la levee, Ie temps d'emergence, Ie rendement par poquet et Ie rendement global des ignames Dioscorea rotundata lorsqu'elles sont cultivees en sol sablonneux a I'Quest du Nigeria. Lorsque la comparaison a ete faite entre la culture en buttes et en lits de semis non elev's, les resultats ont montre que la difference de rendement en tubercules est peu sensible, qu'il s'agisse de l'une ou de l 'autre-methode. La plantation six semaines avant Ie dl!but des pluies et I'utilisation de paillis permettent d'obtenir un rendement eleve. El cubrimiento de almacigos de name redujo la temperatura del suelo y mejore la emergencia, el tiempo de emergencia rendimiento por cepa y rendimiento total de name, Dioscorea rotundata, en un suelo arenoso de Nigeria Occidental. La comparacion de camas con almacigos alomados 0 pianos demostr6 que no hay diferencia entre ninguno de estos tratamientos en• cuanto al rendimento de tuberculos. La siembra, cerea de 6 semanas antes del establecimiento de las lIuvias y el uso de cobertura, se indica como una buena tecnica para obtener altos rendimientos. 1977 2018-11-14T06:52:54Z 2018-11-14T06:52:54Z Conference Paper https://hdl.handle.net/10568/98118 en fr es Limited Access Lal, R. & Hahn, S.K.
