Litter Quality Affects Termite Sheeting Production and Water Infiltration in the Soil

Litter Quality Affects Termite Sheeting Production and Water Infiltration in the Soil

This study aimed to understand the relationship between termite food preferences and the ecological benefits derived from their activity in terms of soil dynamics and water infiltration. A field study was carried out for six months with different food baits (elephant dung, Acacia leaves, twigs and l...
