Heavy Metal Accumulation in Soil and Subsequent Uptake by Amaranthus (amaranthus Cruentus (l.) Irrigated with Dye Industrial Effluent

O. A. Oguntade*, Adetunji M. T, Jamiu Oladipupo Azeez

This study assessed the impacts of untreated dye effluent collected from three dyeing sites on soil heavy metal accumulation, uptake by root and accumulation in amaranthus shoot. Dye effluents collected at discharge points on the sites were diluted with fresh water at 0 %, 25 %, 50 % and 100 % concentrations. Each dye effluent concentration was app...

Effect of Phosphate Rock Addition on Soil Organic Matter

O. O. Adesanwo*, Adetunji M. T, S. Diatta

The fertilizer treatments consisted of four rates of Ogun phosphate rock (0, 30, 60 and 90 kg P ha-1) and triple super-phosphate at 40 kg P ha-1. Legume treatment consisted of Mucuna and cowpea and were planted as pre-rice crop. Soil samples were collected and analyzed for organic carbon. Four pellets of Ogun phosphorites labeled OG1, OG2, OG3 and ...

Suitability of Extractants for the Determination of Available Sulphur for Groundnut Production in Some Soils of Benue State, Nigeria

B.C. Anjembe*, Adetunji M. T

Occurrence of sulphur deficiency in Nigerian soils is becoming frequent and more extensive due to intensive cultivation and shift from low analysis to high analysis fertilizers which do not contain sulphur. Information is still required on the parameters of evaluating sulphur status and requirement of crops in the country. Studies were conducted in...

Nitrogen and Phosphorus Dynamics in a Legume Based Integrated Nutrient Management System

Amusan O. A.*, Adetunji M. T, Jamiu Oladipupo Azeez

This study was carried out on a tropical alfisol for two consecutive years to investigate the effect of a legume based integrated nutrient management system on the soil status of nitrogen and phosphorus. The treatments consisted of two rates of poultry manure (0 and 5 t ha-1 ), three rates of N fertilizer (0, 50 and 100 kg N ha-1 applied as urea), ...

Nutrient Availability to Soybean (glycine Max (l) Merr.) from Ogun Phosphate Rock and Zinc Application in Some South-Western Nigerian Alfisols

Shokalu A. O*, Shokalu O, Adetunji M. T, Jamiu Oladipupo Azeez

The response of soybean (Glycine max (L) Merr.) to phosphorus from beneficiated Ogun phosphate rock (OPR) and zinc application (as ZnO; 80 % Zn) was studied in both pot and field experiments. Pot experiment was conducted with six surface soils collected from 0-20 cm depth of different land uses within Ogun State, Nigeria while the most representati...
