Prediction of Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity Using Soil Texture and Organic Carbon Under Different Land Use Types

Onasanya, O. O^*, F.K. Salako, AJIBOYE G. A., Busari M. A.

The aim of this study is to develop models for saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ks) in soils under different land use types in a tropical environment. The regression models were developed using the soil particle size fraction and organic carbon contents.The results indicated that the sand, clay and organic carbon content of the soils were sufficie...

Effect of Tillage, Poultry Manure and Npk Fertilizer on Soil Chemical Properties and Maize Yield on an Alfisol at Abeokuta, South - Western Nigeria

M.A. Busari^*, F.K. Salako

Tillage is a basic soil management tool that significantly affects soil characteristics and plant development. This study examined the 2-year effects of tillage, poultry manure (PM) and NPK 20:10:10 fertilizer on soil chemical properties and maize yield. The experiment was a split-split- plot design with three replications. Tillage (zero tillage (Z...
