A laboratory experiment was set up at Kogi State University Anyigba at the faculty of Agriculture, department of soil and environmental management Laboratory to evaluate the effect of different levels of poultry manure on total heterotrophic bacteria in a cropped soil. Soil samples were collected from many random points at the Kogi State... Continue Reading

37) Cations Ratios Distribution In Selected Rice Soils Of Ebonyi, Southeastern Nigeria

This research work was carried out on the rice soils of Ebonyi State, considering the cation ratios distribution in upland, lowland and irrigated rice in the three agro-ecological zones of Ebonyi, namely; Ebonyi North, Ebonyi Central and Ebonyi South. The location at Ebonyi North was at Amachi Izzi in Abakaliki and designated by AUP, ALP and AIP... Continue Reading

38) The Effect Of Land Use On Soil Aggregate Stability And Soil Carbon Sequestration In Some Selected Soils Of South Eastern Nigeria

The Information on the effect of different land use systems on the aggregate stability and carbon sequestration is crucial for the recommendation of efficient land management practices. This study was conducted to evaluate the variation in aggregate stability and carbon sequestration under different land use systems in two agro ecological... Continue Reading

39) Lnfluence Of Biochar On Vegetable (amaranthus Viridis) Uptake On Cadmium Contaminated Soil

Cadmium (Cd) is a common environmental contaminant found in soils. Unlike other metals. Cd has no biological role, and is potentially toxic to microorganisms. The concentrations of cadmium in agricultural soils depend upon the amounts present in the parent rocks from which the soils form, the amounts added in the form of fertilizers and...
