The importance of irrigation practice in food production cannot be over-emphasised, however practices impact soils and other environmental parameters negatively. This necessitates the need for continuous monitoring impacts on general environment. A study was carried out Josepdam Irrigation Scheme (JIS) located Bacita, Ilorin, Nigeria. limited to assessment soil physical chemical properties. Soi...

Fairy Circles (FCs) are barren circular patches of soil surrounded by grass species, the origin of which is poorly understood. FCs feature in both the gravel plains and dune fields of the Namib Desert. While a substantial number of hypotheses to explain the origin and/or sustainability of fairy circles have been presented, none are completely consistent with either their properties or distribut...

Soil quality is an important factor and maintained by inhabited microorganisms. Soil physicochemical characteristics determine indigenous microbial population and rice provides food security to major population of the world. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the impact of physicochemical variables on bacterial community composition and diversity in conventional paddy fields which could refl...

Characteristics of hawthorn wood concerning soil physicochemical properties were studied. Physical such as dry density and volumetric swelling fiber dimension parameters like length, diameter, cell wall thickness investigated. Soil including clay, silt soil, sand electrical conductivity, pH, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, organic matter content determined. Pearson correlation was applied to e...
