“…As shown with cereal food crops, forage, silvo-pastoral, agroforestry and horticultural systems, the inclusion of a legume in inter-cropping or co-cropping provides nitrogen inputs in the cultural system in addition to producing valuable yields (Lizarazo et al, 2015;Peoples et al, 2015). Indeed, it is known that legumes, used in either inter-cropping or co-cropping, influence the Neconomy of a system in two ways: they fix part of their Nrequirement from atmospheric N 2 and, therefore, deplete available soil-N lesser than non-legumes, and also provide part of the fixed-N upon mineralization of decaying plant residues to the nonleguminous crop (Nyagumbo et al, 2015;Peoples et al, 2015).…”
