Patterns of decomposition and nutrient release by fresh Gliricidia (Gliricidia sepium) leaves in an ultisol [PDF]
Nutrient Cycling in Agroecosystems, 1999 Legume leaves used as green manure are a potential alternative to the use of commercial N fertilizers for non-legume crop production. Thus it is important to understand the rate of legume leaf decomposition and its release of nutrients. This paper reports the results of a litter bag experiment using fresh Gliricidia sepium leaves under field conditions.
