Subject Groundnut
 
Description This paper examines the nodulation and nitrogen furation of
groundnut when grown in pure culture or in associatbn with pearl
millet, maize or sorghum. In all cases, association of groundnut
with a cereal resulted in reduced nodulation and nitrogen fixation.
This was ascribed to shading of the groundnut, leading to reduced
photosynthesis. When grain milkt was planted in rotation wish
groundnut or maize supplied 21) kg N/ha, yield following
.groundnut were 524 kg/ha greater than obtained in the
millet] maize rotation.
