Pedological Characterization and Classification of Soils Underlain by Basement Complex at the Mambilla Plateau, Nigeria

Osujieke D.N.*, Idoga S., Abagyeh S. O. I, Ugese, F.D

The study aimed to characterize and classify selected soils underlain by a basement complex at the Mambilla Plateau in Taraba State Northeast, Nigeria. A total of 12 pedons were dug to represent sampling units. Soil samples from the pedogenetic horizons of the pedons were collected after profile description, processed and analyzed. The pedons were ...

Land Suitability Evaluation for the Production of Maize (zea Mays) and Groundnut (arachis Hypogaea L.) Using Parametric and Non - Parametric Methods in Mambilla Plateau, Nigeria

Osujieke D.N.*, Idoga S., Abagyeh S. O. I, Ugese, F.D

The study aimed to evaluate the land suitability for the production of maize (Zea mays) and groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) in selected soils of the Mambilla Plateau in Sardauna local government area in Taraba State Northeast, Nigeria. Land suitability for maize and groundnut production was evaluated both by the conventional (non-parametric) and pa...

Land Suitability Evaluation of the Wetland Soils of Obukiyo, Oju Lga of Benue State, Nigeria for Rice (oryza Sativa) Production

Ogbu O. J,*, Idoga S., Abagyeh S. O. I, Usman, J.

The inland wetland soils of Obukiyo, Oju Local Government Area of Benue State, Nigeria were evaluated for the production of rice. The physical, chemical and morphological features of the soils were matched with the requirements of the crop (rice), and the overall suitability rating of the soils was obtained using limitation method. Unit 1 soils wer...

Irrigation Suitability Ratings and Okra Productivity of Some Mid - Benue Trough Soils: a Comparative Analysis

Abagyeh S. O. I*, Ibo P. I., Idoga S.

A detailed soil survey using grid method was conducted to characterize and rate irrigation suitability of soils and relate it with okra productivity under surface irrigation. Two soil profiles were dug at each site and morphologically described. Soils sampled from identified profile horizons were analyzed. Parametric evaluation method using the soi...
