Abstract: This research aimed at characterization and suitability evaluation of upland soils in Kogi East for maize, cassava, and oil palm production with the specific objective of optimizing production as ensuring food security in the region through adequate data generation. The survey adopted a free technique method, using four dug soil profiles denoted as 22a1

Abstract: Soil acidity is the main bottleneck to crop production, causing reduced yields in highlands areas with heavy rainfall. Lime application is the most common method of restoring soil acidity and can increase soil pH, improve nutrient availability for plants, and alter physical, chemical, and biological properties of soils. However, the lime application time varies greatly along the boundary and deviates from the time recommended by different researchers. The experiment was initiated to

Abstract: Silicon (Si) is an element, not essential, but is beneficial for some plants. The Freundlich model was used to describe Si adsorption on soil samples which pretreated with different Si and phosphorus (P) concentrations and inculpated for 60 days. Soil incubated samples were: T1 soil had no Si or P (control); T2, T3 and T4 soils contained 50, 100, and 200 mg Si L-1, respectively. T5 and T6 soils contained 50 mg Si L-1 in combined with either 7 or 10 mg P L-1 along with T7 and T8 soil

Abstract: In Ethiopia, there has been a general misunderstanding about the water resource potential of the country, irrigation practice, the role of ground water in every aspect in the country especially in irrigation have been lacking. The general objective of this review paper was to receive some information about, the water resource potential and irrigation agriculture practice in Ethiopia from different literatures to provide useful information for decision makers for the

Abstract: Water availability is becoming a critical issue in Ethiopia so that preferable irrigation technologies need to be developed and water productivity of irrigated crops through water management is a vital option in water shortage areas. Hence, the objective of the study was to improve potato tuber production through the application of different irrigation system and deficit irrigation application under highland climatic condition. Field experiment was carried out at farmer field

Abstract: A greenhouse study was conducted to assess the influence of locally pyrolysed feedstock in the mineralization of Potassium (K), Phosphorus (P) and Magnesium (Mg) and toxicity of Cadmium (Cd) and Nickel (Ni) heavy metals in soil. Separate amendments of Wood char (WC), Cattle dung (CD) and a combination of both Wood and Cattle dung (WCD) chars weighed at 150 g (W1), 300 g (W2) and 450 g (W3) were assessed for physico-chemical characteristics of incorporated soils

Abstract: Irrigation development is a priority taxes for agricultural transformation in Ethiopia. But poor practices of irrigation management discourage efforts to improve livelihoods and expose people and the environment to risks. In Ethiopia severe waterlogging and salinity problems have challenged agricultural production and resulted in substantially lower yields than the potential expected. So, overviewed the cause and baste approaches for management of water logging

Abstract: Through a series of in vitro, greenhouse, field experiments with 4 iterations, with control variants, statistical processing of reliability we see: Toxicity in the environment in alum soil has very volatile Large and complex, this variation depends: 1-Applying three tons of CaCO3/ha to rice soil, otherwise washing acid sulfate soil some case and sometimes it is harmful.
