Soil organic carbon and infiltrability in relation to distance from trees (Vitellaria paradoxa) with and without termite mounds in a parkland of central Burkina Faso
In semi-arid Burkina Faso access to water is crucial for crop-growth. Most common cropping system in the region is parklands, where crops are grown in association with trees. This study investigates if trees and termites influence steady-state infiltrability, soil carbon content, bulk density and ma...
