Cuban Journal of Agricultural Science. with 4 replications in order to evaluate the performance of Leucaena leucocephala var. Peru sown alone in furrows or combined with 2, 3, 4 or 6 rows of.

Agroforestry systems make maximum use of the land. Every part of the land is considered suitable for useful plants. Emphasis is placed on perennial, multiple purpose crops that are planted once and yield benefits over a long period of time. Such benefits include construction materials, food for humans and animals, fuels, fibers, and shade. Trees in agroforestry systems also have important uses.

Wheat bran is exported worldwide and is a major feed commodity. However, worldwide production figures are difficult to assess. Wheat production for human consumption (total supply minus wheat produced for animal feeding, seed or wasted) was estimated to be 456 million tons in 2007.

Factors affecting plant species diversity and distribution of native and nonnative species along the Wa’ahila Ridge Trail (Oahu, Hawaii) were investigated in ten different elevational plots. All plant species within each of the ten plots were recorded by both means of transects and quadrat sampling with estimates of their biomass and canopy cover. Plant species diversity was later calculated.

The Italo-Latin American Society of Ethnomedicine, is an international non-profit organisation dedicated to progressing scientific discipline around the universe by functioning as an pedagogue, leader, interpreter and professional association. The cardinal nonsubjective ofA SILAEA is to advance the research, development and usage of medicative and nutrient workss in different states of the.

Other than affecting the humans directly, they are the major cause of economic losses in the livestock industry since the advent of civilisation. Aim of the present study was to collect and systematically document the traditional knowledge of poisonous plants of Udhampur District for the benefit of humanity before it is entombed forever.

Biofertilizer Blue-Green Algae (Cyanobacteria) Role of the blue-green algae (e.g. Aulosira, Anabaena, Cylindrospermum, Nostoc, Plectonema, Tolypothrix) in the paddy fields was realized much earlier (Singh, 1961). In water-logging condition, the cyanobacteria multiply, fix atmospheric N 2 and release it into the surroundings in the form of amino acids, proteins and other growth promoting.

The value of a wide range of tropical legumes was mentioned, in particular Centrosema spp., Stylosanthes spp. and Leucaena spp., and the potential of other tree legume sources is being recognized. Leucaena leucocephala has been most widely commercialized, and can be hedge-cropped both mechanically and manually, or grazed in situ. It is adapted.

Increasing concentration of heavy metals (HM) due to various anthropogenic activities is a serious problem. Plants are very much affected by HM pollution particularly in contaminated soils. Survival of plants becomes tough and its overall health under HM stress is impaired. Remediation of HM in contaminated soil is done by physical and chemical processes which are costly, time-consuming, and.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of various sodium and calcium-based saline treatments on the germination and early growth of Leucaena leucocephala. The evaluation of calcium-based salts has never been studied for its effects on Leucaena leucocephala. This experiment utilized 5 increasing concentrations of sodium chloride.

In three types of vegetal cover; Leucaena leucocephala, Mucuna pruriens and secondary vegetation, with two and four years of fallow, a completely randomized design with four repetitions was established and the nutriment quantities in three intervals were determined: 1998 after two years of established the fallows of four years, 2001 when being.
