Effects of Intercropping Acacia Mangium with Peanut (Arachis Hypogaea) on Tree/Crop Growth and Some Chemical Properties of Two Malaysian Soils

Malaysian soils are of low fertility because they are highly weathered soils. Large scale clearance of natural forests and mining activities have resulted in increased erosion and leaching of nutrients thus aggravating this problem of low soil fertility. Two field experiments were conducted in...
