Characteristics of Soils Along a Toposequence in Ishiagu, Eastern Nigeria and Its Relation to Potential Agricultural Landuse.

Nsor M.E.^*, Adesemuyi E.A

The soil along a toposequence in Isiagu, Eastern Nigeria was studied to establish its influence on soil properties and its relation to potential agricultural use. In order to characterize and classify the soil, three pedons were dug along the toposequence at the crest, middle slope and valley bottom. The soils were characterized in terms of their m...

Characterization, Classification and Land Suitability Evaluation of Soils Derived from Diverse Parent Materials in Central Cross River State of Nigeria for Arable Cropping

Nsor M.E.^*, Akamigbo, F.O.R.

The Physico-chemical characterization of soils derived from five parent materials in the humid tropics of South Southern Nigeria was studied. Soil properties such as texture, drainage, effective soil depth, nutrients status and reserves were employed for site suitability evaluation for arable cropping (cassava, maize and groundnut). Suitability cla...
