Laboratory Assessment of Basalt Dust Incubation on the Physical Properties of Contrasting Soils in Nigeria

IBRAHIM RASHEED^*, Akinbile Oluwakunmi Christopher, Ewulo Babatunde Sunday, Ayodele Olumuyiwa Owolabi, Audu Luqman Muhammed

The effects of different application rates, particle sizes, and incubation periods of basalt dust on the selected physical properties of contrasting soils incubated for 90-day was evaluated in this study. A factorial arrangement with a 4×2×4 completely randomized design (CRD) with three replications was adopted. Air-dried and sieved soil samples co...
