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. A ...

Slope Position and Depth Effects on Selected Soil Physical Properties Under Oil Palm (elaeis Guineensis) Plantation

O. O. Olubanjo^*, MAIDOH F.U., P.O. Oviasogie

A study was conducted to examine the influence of slope position and depth on soil physical properties in an oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) plantation established on a gently sloping terrain in NIFOR Benin, Nigeria. A line transect was delineated along the slope of the selected plantation. The line transect was 45 m long and 45 m wide. It was divided...

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

OSAYANDE P.E.^*, P.O. Oviasogie, M.O. Ekebafe, MAIDOH F.U.

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...

Assessment of the Water Conservation Potential and Mode of Application of Coconut (cocos Nucifera) Husk Hydrogel on Soil Cultivated to Coconut Seedling

M.O. Ekebafe^*, L. O. Ekebafe, OSAYANDE P.E., MAIDOH F.U., Irhemu P.

Coconut husk cellulosic-polyacrylonitrile hydrogel was synthesized in aqueous solution. Saponification of grafted copolymer was done by reaction with sodium hydroxide followed by methanol precipitation. The reaction was confirmed using FTIR and characterized in terms of water retention value (286g/g) and de-swelling ratio (83.16%). Soil samples col...
