Monitoring of Soil Water Content in Maize Rotated with Pigeonpea Fallows in South Africa
Maize production under smallholder systems in South Africa (RSA) depends on rainfall. Incidences of dry spells throughout the growing season have affected maize yields negatively. The study examined water distribution and water use efficiency (WUE) of maize rotated with two-year pigeonpea fallows as...
