Abstract

Possibilities of propagation by cutting at maerua crassifolia forssk.,
capparaceae, a sahelian fodder tree Characteristics of the cutting of Maerua crassifolia, a sahelian fodder tree, and their monthly variations were established with cuttings resulting from plantations obtained by
artificial regeneration. On a branch of stem, we distinguished closed, median and distant parts. Work took place during hot dry period, in May, April, June and July. The time of resumption is the same one for the various types of cuttings in April. For this month, the most elevated resumption rate (86.70 %) has been gotten with closed cuttings with a length of 19 days of resumption. The weakest resumption rate has been raised to the
month of May, in spite of a length of 9 days of resumption. The month of July, with 91.30 % of resumption and a length of 19 days appears most auspicious. In the same way the delay of resumption was of 2 days.
