Population structure and regeneration status of Vitellaria Paradoxa (C. F. Gaertner) under different land management regimes in Atacora department
Vitellaria paradoxa (shea) parklands are one of the major features of the Sudanian savannah. Besides the parklands importance in terms of provision of ecosystem services, they play a major role in satisfying household ...
Factors influencing conservation of trees on farmland and silvicultural management activities in a Sudanian agro-ecosystem, West Africa
The loss of tree resources and low productivity of soil are the main environmental problems
affecting the livelihoods in developing countries. This paper reports a study of factors
influencing farmers’ decision to protect ...
Reactions of Adansonia digitata L. provenances to long-term stress at seedling stage
The effects of drought stress on growth parameters and dry matter partitioning of seven provenances (six from West Africa and one from East Africa) of Adansonia digitata L. were assessed in a seedling experiment in Burkina ...
Field-scale modeling of tree–crop interactions: Challenges and development needs
Agroforestry has attracted considerable attention in recent years because of its potential to reduce poverty, improve
food security, reduce land degradation and mitigate climate change. However, progress in promoting ...
Floristic diversity of Piliostigma asssociations in relation to latitudinal gradient, soil and climate variables in Burkina Faso, West Africa
We examined the floristic composition and its relationship with environmental
factors across 80 floristic relevés of Piliostigma stands distributed along a north-south gradient
in Burkina Faso. Various diversity indices ...
Advances in knowledge of processes in soil–tree–crop interactions in parkland systems in the West African Sahel: A review
The ‘parklands’ that form the most widespread farming systems in the Sahelian zone of West Africa are
farming systems in which annual crops are grown under scattered trees preserved from the natural
vegetation by farmers ...
