Popis: Albizia saman and Leucaena leucocephala are not native to Bangladesh, but they are widely planted in agroforestry and households for their commercial value. Selection of tree species with efficient return of nutrients is a vital challenge to maintain soil fertility for sustainable crop production. Therefore, a comparative study was conducted on nutrients (N, P and K) leaching from leaf litter of A. saman and L. leucocephala in laboratory condition. The initial dry weight of leaf litter of A. saman and L. leucocephala were significantly (pN>P) of nutrient release during the leaching process and nutrients (N, P and K) concentration in leaf litter of these species showed significant (p
