Soil acidity and phosphorus (P) deficiency are some of the major causes of low maize yields
in Kenya. This study determined the immediate and residual effects of lime and P fertilizer on …

Soil acidity is one of the major factors limiting soil fertility and crop production in large areas
of Ethiopia. A two‐month incubation experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of …

This review focused on the efforts made to understand and manage Kenyan acid soils by
use of inorganic, organic materials (OMs) and crop germplasms tolerant to soil aluminium …

Phosphorus is the second most important crop nutrient after Nitrogen. It is an essential
macronutrient that plays important role in all crop biochemical processes such as …

Soil acidity, one of the contributors to soil fertility depletion, has become a matter of concern
in sub-Saharan Africa. In Kenya, 13% of the soils are acidic and are considered to be low …

Declining soil fertility attributed to soil acidity is a major soil productivity problem in sub-
Saharan Africa. A study was carried out in nine counties across the Kenya highlands …

The one year field study evaluated the effectiveness of cattle manure (CM), nitrogen (N) and
phosphorus (P) fertilizers on some soil chemical properties and maize (Zea mays L.) grain …

Continuous land degradation and soil acidity are some of the major causes of below optimal
crop yields in Kenya. Sustainable crop production therefore calls for efficient soil health …

Food production in Kenya is constrained by low and declining soil health resulting from low
soil fertility and increasing widespread soil acidity, coupled with emerging climate change …

Soil acidity, low level of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and soil organic matter are major
constraints to sorghum production in Kenya. We investigated the effect of farmyard manure …
