Performance of Multipurpose Trees and Soil Fertility under Integrated termite management practices

This book studies the growth of multipurpose trees and soil fertility under agroforestry-based integrated termite management practices in termite-affected area of western Ethiopia. It evaluates the growth and survival of five multipurpose tree species and assesses changes in key soil fertility parameters under different tree-based management practices. The findings highlight the potential of integrated termite management, particularly the use of Croton macrostachyus and Melia azedarach, to improve soil fertility and support the high survival of multipurpose trees that help rehabilitate degraded land. This book provides valuable insights for researchers, agricultural experts, extension workers, and policymakers working to promote sustainable land management and agroforestry development.
