Spatial Multi-Criteria Evaluation of Land Suitability for Rainfed Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.) Production in Kambriwa, Kaugama LGA of Jigawa State, Nigeria

Alkasim Abdulkadir*, Magaji M. J, Abdulrahman B. L., Salihu Ahmad Pantami

Improving cowpea productivity in the semi-arid Sudan Savanna requires spatially explicit information on land resources to support agricultural planning and soil management. This study evaluated the suitability of land for rainfed cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) production in Kambriwa, Kaugama Local Government Area, Jigawa State, Nigeria, usin...

Simulating Soil Nutrients Balance Using Monqi Model (monitoring for Quality Improvement) in a Rice Based Cropping System of Kano State, Nigeria

Abdulrahman B. L.*

Enhancing soil microbial properties through balanced inputs of organic and inorganic amendments are key to sustainable soil and crop productivity. A laboratory incubation study was conducted to determine microbial respiration, population and nutrient (N and P) mineralization patterns in an Ultisol amended with sole Urea at 56 kg N ha−1 or Urea (at ...

Comparative Potential Effects of Biochar, Compost and Inorganic Fertilizer on Major Nutrient Ions Mobility and Stability in Screen - House Irrigated Maize in the Drier Savannas of Nigeria

Dawaki M. U.*, Aliyu Abdulqadir, Abdulrahman B. L.

A screen-house experiment was conducted in the dry season of 2017 to evaluate the potential effect of organic and inorganic soil amendments on the mobility and stability of significant plant nutrient ions. 5 t ha-1 compost or Biochar were applied to pot-grown maize to compare their effect with NPK at the rate of 120: 60: 60 kg ha-1 and a control. S...

Estimating Partial Nutrient Balance Using Nutmon Model in Irrigated Rice - Based Farms of the Nigerian Dry Savanna

Abdulrahman B. L.*, Jibrin Muhammad Jibrin, M. B. Bashir

Soil fertility decline coupled with the failure to conduct soil analysis by the farmers while generating fertilizer recommendations are among the factors that led to low yield especially in the dry Savanna of Nigeria which is characterized by a dramatic increase in population. In this study, the performance of the soils at Bunkure Local Government ...
