Influence of Slope and Depth on Soil Chemical Properties in an Oil Palm Plantation

O. O. Olubanjo*, MAIDOH F.U.

A study was carried out in a 28-year old Oil palm (Elaeis guineesis) plantation established on a gently sloping terrain in NIFOR Benin, Nigeria to determine the geo-spatial distribution of soil chemical properties as influenced by slope position and depth and also the assess the relationship between soil chemical properties with slope and depth.

Assessment of Degradation in Soils of Transplanted Shea Tree (vitellaria Paradoxa Gartn C. F.)under Two Land Use Types at Bida, Niger State

Land use affects the fertility and management of soils. The influence of contrary land use types imposed on a Shea field was studied at NIFOR Substation, Bida, Niger state. The field, a sparse grass fallow measuring a 100m X 100m was demarcated into two equal halves. A portion of it was cleared and planted to melon while the sparse grass fallow was...
