- W1500646829 abstract "Experiences with green manure/cover crops (GMCCs) are mounting throughout the tropical regions. However, information is inadequate on the GMCC systems practiced by farmers. With the financial support of The Rockefeller Foundation and as a component of the GMCC Exploration Project, in 1998 the International Centre for Information on Cover Crops (CIDICCO, the Spanish acronym) initiated a process of documenting GMCC systems utilized by smallholder tropical farmers. This chapter describes that effort, the Catalogue of GMCC Systems Used by Smallholders of the Tropics, and characterizes the information on the 72 GMCC systems collected by the year 2000. The largest share of the systems is from Africa (51% of all systems), followed by Latin America (42%). The systems include a total of 27 main crops, with maize (Zea mays L.) predominant (over 66% of the systems). Thirty-six GMCCs are utilized in the surveyed systems, with Mucuna sp. Adans as the most frequent (25% of the systems), followed by cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp) and Canavalia ensiformis (L.) DC. In these systems, simultaneous intercropping arrangements were the most common (36% of the systems), followed by rotational systems (13%). Although many of the surveyed systems are traditional (44%), recently adopted systems form a slight majority (56%) and about one-third of all systems (38%) had been developed through research and followed up with research support. There was little exact information on adoption but about half of the systems were described as well adopted, a further 35% as moderately so and adoption in most was described as increasing (42%) or stable (32%). About one-half of the systems surveyed include both subsistence and cash crops and one-third only subsistence crops. Of the GMCCs, in one half of the systems either nothing is removed or only the seeds are removed. In the large majority of the systems, women play an active role. In addition to the survey, an interactive Web site has been developed to harbour the catalogue." @default.
