Abstract
SUMMARY: Experiments with farmers' traditional practice of growing cereals with groundnuts demonstrated that the system consistently produced greater cash returns than sole-crop groundnuts. Increasing the proportion of cereal, and incorporating maize in addition to sorghum and millet, increased cash returns even further.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
