Variability of Some Properties of the Nun River Plain Soils in Bayelsa State, Nigeria

Achimota A. Dickson^*, Tate, J. O, Ogboin, P. T, Payebo, O. C, Agbai, W. P.

Whereas studies on spatial variability of soil properties on toposequences are well documented, information on the variability of characteristics of floodplain soils is lacking. This study, therefore, evaluates the status and variability of the soil properties in three physiographic units in two locations on the Nun River floodplain. Silt-sized par...

Evaluation of Lower Niger River Floodplain Soils of Bayelsa State, Southern Nigeria for Their Agricultural Capabilities

Achimota A. Dickson^*, FunsoR. Kutu, Joseph Aruleba

Capabilities and fertility constraints to crop production of the Lower Niger River floodplain soils were assessed using Land Capability Classification (LCC), Land capability Index (LCI), and the Fertility Capability Classification (FCC) systems. The LCC grouped the nine soil mapping units (SMUs) into class II, suited for a wide range of arable crop...
