    Uganda, Eastern Africa

    The potential of Crotalaria ochroleuca check for this species in other resources as a green manure crop was evaluated in a series of on-station and on-farm trials on reddish kaolinitic loam and sandy clay loam soils in Uganda. Production of the green manure by intercropping Crotalaria with either maize or beans was found to be feasible with little reduction in food crop yield and a mean Land Equivalent Ratio of 1.3. The large amounts of N in the Crotalaria indicates that large quantities of N were biologically fixed.
