• Evergreen Agriculture: a robust approach to sustainable food security in Africa (2010, background): “…Makoka Research Station, Malawi, yielded more than 5 t/ha in good years, and an average of 3.7 t/ha overall, in the absence of mineral fertilizers: that compared with an average of 0.5– 1.0 t/ha in control plots without Gliricidia or mineral fertilizer (Akinnifesi et al. 2007; Makumba et al. 2006).”
• Accurate crop yield predictions from modelling tree-crop interactions in gliricidia-maize agroforestry (2017, background): “Annual biomass and nutrient content of gliricidia residues are reported in Makumba et al. (2006), along with annual maize biomass and grain yield.”
