The effects of mulch from selected multipurpose trees on nitrogen nutrition, growth and yield of maize (Zea mays)
Leaf extracts and mulch from 14 multipurpose trees were used to test their effects on maize germination, growth and yield. Maize germination was significantly reduced by leaf extracts of all species with increasing extract concentration. The most drastic reductions were caused by Gliricidia sepium,...
