Inga species and alley-cropping alternative to slash-and- burn agriculture
As argued above, more-durable mulch species are desirable; but mixtures are feasible and might include a proportion of readily-decomposable foliage species such as Gliricidia sepium , which is very well-known throughout Central and South America . The research project reported here has trials of pepper ( Piper nigrum ) grown on living supports of this species, between hedgerows of Inga . The pe...
متن کاملSoil Organic Carbon and Nitrogen Fractions in Temperate Alley Cropping Systems
Alley cropping may promote greater sequestration of soil organic carbon. The objective of this study was to examine spatial variability of soil organic carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) fractions relative to tree rows in established alley cropping systems in north central Missouri. Soils were collected to a depth of 30 cm from two alley cropped sites, a 19-yr-old pecan (Carya illinoinensis)/bluegrass...
متن کاملMaize Production and Soil Properties Change in Alley Cropping System at Different Nitrogen Levels
Productivity of maize and soil properties change under alley cropping system consisting of four woody species (Gliricidia sepium, Leucaena leucocephala, Cajanus cajan and Senna siamea) at different nitrogen levels (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% of recommended rate) were studied in the floodplain ecosystem of Bangladesh. Comparative growth performance of four woody species after pruning showed that L. ...
متن کاملUpper Coastal Plain of southeastern Arkansas, USA
To contribute to an understanding of forest management on secondary forest succession, we conducted vegetation surveys in a chronosequence of pine stands ranging in age from 1 to 59 years. Adjacent areas were compared at 1, 7, 12, and 17 years following two reproduction cutting methods (clearcuts or pine seed-tree cuts); a 59-year-old pine stand that was periodically thinned was also included t...
متن کاملInteractions among leguminous trees, crops and weeds in a no-till alley cropping system
Trees improve the soil quality and their rapid growth in the tropics make agroforestry systems potentially effective for establishing low-input agricultural systems in this region. This study assessed the effects of the biophysical interactions among leguminous trees, weeds, cotton and maize in an alley cropping system. The experiment comprised six treatments: Clitoria + Gliricidia; Acacia ...
