Response of three Leucaena leucocephala cultivars to a four-cycle cutting frequency under rainfed dryland conditions in Zimbabwe
An experiment was conducted to investigate the relative case or establishment and dry matter (DM) production of 3 Leucaena leucocephala cultivars (Cunningham, Hawaiian giant and Peru) grown on granite-derived sandy soil (pH 4.8 CaCl2 under low rainfall (average 600mm/ annum) conditions. Plants were...

Abstract | An experiment was conducted to investigate the relative case or establishment and dry matter (DM) production of 3 Leucaena leucocephala cultivars (Cunningham, Hawaiian giant and Peru) grown on granite-derived sandy soil (pH 4.8 CaCl2 under low rainfall (average 600mm/ annum) conditions. Plants were first harvested after 9 months of primary growth and at 4- monthly intervals thereafter, by cutting back to 50 cm above ground-level. "
Cunningham was quicker to establish than Peru and Hawaiian giant as evidenced by greater DM production in the 9-month period following planting. With cutting at 4-monthly intervals thereafter, Peru produced only half as much dry matter as Cunningham and Hawaiian giant. |
