1. Assessing of Soil Nutrients Using Laboratory and Remote Sensing Methods in Northern Guinea SavannahIntroduction Soil nutrients are essential for plant growth and development, making their assessment crucial for sustainable agriculture and environmental management. The northern Guinea savannah region, known for its agricultural potential, requires periodic monitoring of soil nutrient status to ensure optimal crop yields and maintain soil fertility. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of laboratory and remote sensing techniques in assessing soil nutrients in this region.... A. Rabiu garba |
2. Toward Precision Agriculture by Assessing FAO Soil Data Accuracy with Localised Soil Mapping in Mid-Western UgandaProper soil mapping remains a major input for efforts that aim at developing context specific soil and crop management. Soil maps often enable policy makers and other agricultural extension programs to establish the suitability of land for various production systems. Currently, most soil maps have been developed basing in the FAO soil data bases at a scale of 1:50,000 yet farmers and other local land users require fine scales to guide decision in the use of fertilizers and selection of ...
