The Intergovernmental Technical Panel on Soils has completed the first State of the World's Soil Resources Report. Globally soil erosion was identified as the gravest threat, leading to deteriorating water quality in developed regions and to lowering of crop yields in many developing regions. We ...

Presents the results of investigations on the relative distribution of the various phosphorus forms, fixing capacity and status of some Ethiopian highland Vertisols.


Mamo, T.Haque, I.Kamara, C.S.[Phosphorus status of some Ethiopian highland Vertisols]Phosphorus status of some Ethiopian highland Vertisols

Vertisols and soils with vertic properties are an important soil group in the Ethiopian highlands. Poor drainage, soil, water and nutrient erosion are the most serious problems on highland Vertisols. Due to their high moisture- storage capacity, they have high production potential and this potent...

Although this document is intended to report research on Vertisols, livestock do not respect this boundary as they graze communal land. Hence a general situation of the available feed resources in the highlands is also highlighted which is followed by specific efforts of collaborative partners of...

The experience of ICRISAT with the use of Vertisols in semi-arid India indicates that the key to drastically improved productivity of Vertisols is the effective control of surface soil water which then enables rational use of the land for food and feed production. ILCA, therefore, developed and t...

The two years on-farm tillage research during the 1999 and 2000 cropping seasons in Ethiopian highland Vertisol area demonstrated the importance of adapting cultural practices into participatory trials. The minimum tillage package could be an effective intervention for soil conservation due to th...

This chapter summarises the experience of a research project for developing and disseminating technologies for better management of Vertisols for improving productivity. Topics of discussion include Vertisol technology Development and testing in Ethiopia; the adoption pathways for the BBM package...
