Soil Suitability Evaluation for Maize in Lere Local Government Area of Kaduna State Nigeria

The soils of Lere (Saminaka) in Kaduna state, Northern Guinea Savanna climatic zone were evaluated for suitability of maize (Zea mays) cultivation, employing various methods. Data were obtained through field study and laboratory analyses. Three soil Units were delineated, and one profile was sunk in each of the soil units. The profiles were describ...

Variability of Some Soil Properties Along a Toposequence in a Basaltic Parent Material of Vom, Plateau State Nigeria

Topography influences the distribution of some soil physical and chemical properties. This study assessed some variation in soil properties resulting from the topographic effect on Basaltic parent material at Vom Jos Plateau State in the Southern Guinea zone of Nigeria. Soil samples were collected at an interval of 20m and at depths of 0 to15cm and...

Appraisal and Mapping of Soil Salinity and Sodicity Problems in Sector One of Watari Irrigation Scheme, Kano State.

Bashir A.Y*, Samndi A. M., Adam M.A, Moji K.T, Auwal M.

One of the main reasons for the loss of productive land in irrigated fields is the buildup of salinity in the soil. In the watari irrigation Scheme, no systematic ap-praisal and mapping have been made before within the sector. The study area was selected after a reconnaissance survey based on the farmer's complaint about the low production. Global ...

Effect of Phosphorus and Sulphur on Oil Content of Sesame Varieties (research Communication)

Jahun H. A.*, Samndi M. A., S. G. Mohammed

Information on phosphorus sulphur fertilizer requirements of some new sesame varieties in Semi-Arid ecological regions is deficient therefore the need to evaluate the effects of P and S has become necessary.Two sets of experiments were carried out to evaluate the effect of phosphorus and sulphur on the oil content of sesame (Sesame indicum L.). The...
