Decomposition, Mineralization And Nitrogen Loss Following Application Of Different Rates Of Mucuna Green Biomass Under Field Conditions In Kenya

Mburu, Mary W. K.; Maobe, S. N.; Akundabweni, L. S.; Ndufa, J. K.; Mureithi, J. G.; Makini, F.; Okello, J. J. (2010-05)

Knowledge on the relationship amongst mucuna green biomass application rate, decomposition pattern, mineralization and its distribution in rooting zone of maize is essential for efficient utilization of the legume as N ...
Economic Analysis of Mucuna Green Manure Nitrogen Application in Maize Production

Mburu, Mary W. K.; Maobe, S. N.; Akundabweni, L. S.; Ndufa, J. K.; Mureithi, J. G.; Gachene, C. K. K.; Okello, J. J.; Makini, F. (2011)

On-farm experiment was carried out in southwest Kenya in the period 2002 to 2005. The objective was to determine the most profitable source of nitrogen for maize production, and assess various application quantities to ...
Effect of Mucuna green manure and inorganic fertilizer, Urea Nitrogen sources and application rates on harvest index of maize (Zea Mays L.)

Mburu, Mary W. K.; Maobe, S. N.; Akundabweni, L. S. M; Ndufa, J. K.; Mureithi, J. G.; Gachene, C. K. K.; Makini, F. W.; Okello, J. J. (IDOSI Publications, 2010)

Maize yield in Kenya is constrained by inadequate supply of nitrogen and these is need to search for locally available and potentially low-cost sources. Nitrogen is one of the most deficient elements in the highly weathered ...
Effect of Mucuna Green Manure Application Rate on Decomposition and Soil Available Nitrogen under Field Conditions: I. During Season of Incorporation

Mburu, Mary W. K.; Maobe, S. N.; Akundabweni, L. S. M.; Ndufa, J. K.; Mureithi, J. G.; Gachene, C. K. K.; Okello, J. J.; Makini, F. W. (IDOSI Publications, 2011)

On-farm study was carried out for two seasons on sandy clay soil of southwest Kenya in 2004. The objective was to determine effect of different application rates of mucuna green manure on its decomposition pattern, ...
Legume biomass quantity requirement for maize production with reference tomucuna green manure in Kenya

Mburu, Mary W. K.; Maobe, S. N.; Ndufa, J. K.; Akundabweni, L. S. (2008)
Potential effect of mucuna green manure application rates on the decomposition and availability of Nitrogen in varying soil moisture levels under greenhouse conditions

Mburu, Mary W. K.; Maobe, S. N.; Ndufa, J. K.; Akundabweni, L. S.; Mureithi, J. G.; Gachene, C. K. K.; Makini, F.; Okello, J. J. (Paraclete Publishers, 2010)

Knowledge on the possible influence of mucuna green manure application rate, and variable soil moisture conditions on decomposition of its biomass and available soil nitrogen levels is vital ...
Residual Effect of Mucuna pruriens Green manure Application Rate on Maize (Zea mays L.) Grain Yield

Mburu, Mary W. K.; Maobe, S. N.; Akundabweni, L. S. M.; Ndufa, J. K.; Mureithi, J. G.; Gachene, C. K. K.; Makini, F. W.; Okello, J. J. (IDOSI Publications, 2010)

Maize grain yield is constrained by inadequate supply of nitrogen caused by insufficient application of fertilizers that are found to be costly and unaffordable in smallholder farming. Therefore there is need to search for ...
