Soil erosion has become a globally challenging issue that poses a serious threat to agriculture and natural resources, particularly in developing countries like Ethiopia. Estimating the magnitude of soil loss and ...

Soil characterization and classification is an important tool for identifying the most appropriate use of land as well as for sustainable utilization of the precious soil resources. Field survey and soil laboratory ...

Soil acidity is one of the main factors that limit agricultural productivity in many parts of the world. Study was conducted at Southwest showa Ameya District on acidic soils collected from dominant crop fields of the ...

Production and productivity of common bean is decreased mainly by soil fertility depletion, inappropriate rate of poor nutrients availability and application without soil test, and inefficient crop response. Crop ...

The study was conducted with the objective to evaluate the effect of land use types and soil depth on selected soil physicochemical properties. A total of 24 disturbed and 24 undisturbed soil samples were taken from the ...

Wheat is one of the most important cereal crops produced in Ethiopia. However, its production is low mainly due to low soil fertility and poor soil fertility management practices. Field experiment was conducted during 2019 ...

Production and productivity of common bean is decreased mainly by soil fertility depletion, inappropriate rate of poor nutrients availability and application without soil test, and inefficient crop response. Crop specific ...

Ensuring food security for the ever-increasing world population has direct relation with management of lands resources that are vital for crop production. Inadequate information on soil fertility status and poor management ...

Soil resource inventory through characterization provides an insight into the potentials and limitations of soils for agricultral production. Soil fertility, on the other hand, is one of the most important factors controlling ...

Depletion of soil fertility due to soil erosion and nutrient mining farming system leads to decline in soil productivity and subsequently crop yields. This study was initiated to assess soil fertility status and to determine ...
