  abstract = {{T}he objective of this study was to evaluate the behaviour of green manure species, their potential as soil conditioners, and consequently their contribution to sustainable corn production. {T}he green manure species (#{C}rotalaria juncea$, #{C}rotalaria ochroleuca$, #{C}ajanus cajan$, #{C}anavalia ensiformis$, #{M}ucuna aterrima$, #{B}rachiaria ruziziensis$) were sown at the end of the rainy season followed by corn, sown at the beginning of the following rainy season, during 1993/94 and 1994/95. {T}he statistics design was random block design with four replications. {T}he green manure species and spontaneous vegetation were cut at the soil surface level during the flowering period and incorporated into the soil before planting the corn. {F}or green manures species dry matter, nodule's number and weight as well as {C}/{N} ratio, and for corn grain yield as well as weight of ears were determined. {R}ate of organic matter decomposition for different species also was measured. {T}he #{M}. aterrima$ showed the highest value in terms of nodulation (number and weight). {T}he rate of decomposition of #{B}. ruziziensis$ in "litter bags" was significantly ({P} > 0.01) higher than that of the other species, during the period of green manure coverage. #{B}. ruziziensis$, #{C}. cajan$ and #{C}. juncea$ showed {C}/{N} values significantly ({P} > 0.05) higher in comparison to the other plants. {D}uring 1993/94, corn yield on the former #{C}. juncea$ and #{C}. cajan$ treatments was significantly ({P} > 0.05) higher than on the #{M}. aterrima$ as well as the #{B}. ruziziensis$ and spontaneous vegetation treatment. {I}n 1994/95, corn yields were significantly ({P} > 0.05) higher after #{C}. cajan$ and #{C}. ensiformis$ than after #{B}. ruziziensis$ and spontaneous vegetation. {T}herefore, the results show a positive influence of the legumes on corn yield.
