Chinene, V.R.N. | Mbewe, D. | Lungu, D. (Zambia Univ., Lusaka (Zambia))
Soil loss was measured using the runoff plot technique in five cropping systems and a bare plot. Considerable variation in soil loss was apparent between different cropping systems. In the bare plot more than 12 t soil ha**-1 was lost. In millet and its intercrops soil loss was nearly 50% lower than in the bare plot. Millet produced higher yields when intercropped with bambara groundnuts and cowpeas. Similarly, bambara groundnuts and cowpeas produced higher yields when intercropped with millet.
