- Intervention effect Cowpea green manure increased exchangeable cations, CEC and SB in the cassava field study.
- Intervention effect Cowpea green manure increased cassava root yield in the field study.
- Intervention effect Jack bean green manure increased acid cations and soil organic carbon.
- Observation A hierarchy of exchangeable cations, Ca2+>Mg2+>K+, was observed in the cassava field soil.
- Association Plant diameter had a positive linear correlation with cassava root yield.
- Intervention effect Green fertilization positively influenced soil organic carbon in the cassava field study.
- Intervention effect Cowpea treatment acted more broadly on the soil and plant variables studied than the other treatments.
