  • Abstract
  • Un essai de cultures en couloirs a été mené pendant 6 ans au Sud Bénin sur un champ qui était précédemment avec une jachère de 4 ans environ. Un traitement contrôle a été comparé avec des haies de Leucaena leucocephala (Lam) de Wit et Cajanus cajan (L) Millsp placées à 4 mètres les unes des autres. Dans le même essai, une application d’engrais minéraux NPK de 90-30-75 kg/ha a été comparé à un traitement sans application d’engrais et une association de maïs-manioc à un traitement consistant en un...
  • English abstract
  • An alley cropping experiment was carried out during 6 years Bénin on a field previously used as about 4 years bush-fallow. A no-tree control was compared with Leucaena leucocephala (Lam) de Wit and Cajanus cajan (L) Millsp grown in 4 m distant hedgerows. In the same experiment, application of 90-30-75 kg ha-1 NPK fertilizer vs. no fertilizer and maize-cassava intercropping vs. rotation of sole crops was also tested. Topsoil samples (0-30 cm) were taken initially and after 6 years. After 6 year...
