Intercropping of corn with some selected legumes for improved forage production: a review

Intercropping of corn with some selected legumes for improved forage production: a review

Low forage quality and low corn yield experienced due to continuous monoculture resulting from persistent soil depletion in the developing world have generated the need for a sustainable practice to improve quality and yield of aforementioned. This review examines the salient issues that relates to...
