Abstract:

The Crop Environment Resource Synthesis (CERES)-Maize model in Decision Support System for Agricultural Technology Transfer (DSSAT) was calibrated and evaluated with experimental data for simulation of response of two intermediate-maturing maize varieties to different sowing dates in the Nigerian savannas. The calibration experiments involved 14 consecutive field trials conducted in the rainy and dry seasons in Bayero University Kano (BUK), Dambatta, and Zaria between 2014–2019. Two sets of field experiments were conducted simultaneously for model evaluation in Iburu in the southern Guinea sav

Abstract:

<em>Pterocarpus erinaceus </em>Poir. is a tree species of the family Leguminonaseae distributed across West and Central Africa. The surging demand for its wood has hampered its natural regeneration in Nigeria. Effects of pre-sowing treatments and soil media on the germination of its seeds were examined using stratified random sampling. Seeds were sourced from Guineo-Sudanian savanna, Southern Guinea savanna, Derived/Guinea savanna and Northern/Southern Guinea savanna. Pre-sowing treatments including: water (27<sup>0</sup>C, 50<sup>0</sup>C, and 75<sup>0</sup>C for 8 hours, 16 hours and 24

Abstract:

In the savanna soil of Nigeria, micronutrient deficiency was not noticed in the past but with the intensification of agriculture over the years, crop exploitation of soil available nutrients, crop removal and adverse cultural practices of farmers have led to the incidence of micronutrient deficiency with negative effect on growth, yield and quality of crops. To enhance micronutrient availability, use and use efficiency to crops, a field experiment was set up on sorghum at Samaru in the Northern Guinea Savanna of Nigeria with foliar Algifol (Alg) nutrients solution and NPK.

Single plant stands and two plants/stand and 2 arrangements of rows (one row on a ridge and two rows on a ridge) were used to impose maize plant densities evaluated in strip inter-crop with soybean.

AbstractThe Savanna Biomes (Mesic/Dystrophic and Arid/Eutrophic) of Angola cover over 90% of the country. This Chapter presents the case for the recognition, across Africa, of these two distinctive savanna biomes, both defined by the co-dominance of fire-tolerant trees and C4 grasses, falling within seasonal climates of warm, wet summers and mild, dry winters. The Mesic Savanna Biome occurs predominantly on the dystrophic (nutrient-poor) soils of the old peneplains of the Central African Plateau, mostly between 900 and 1400 m above sea level, and where rainfall ranges from 650 to 1400 mm per y

The in-situ measurements are from monitoring stations (at 10, 20, 30 cm depth) at two sites, Yendi and Jirapa in the Northern part of Ghana, West Africa. They are in two different sub-ecological zones of the Savanna in the North of Ghana. These sub-ecological zones are Western Sudan Savanna (Jirapa) and Open Guinea Savanna (Yendi).
