Abstract:

Gypseous soils are considered problematic soils because the soil cavities happen during receiving the water or this type of soil and solving gypsum materials and contract in a soil volume. In this study, three types of gypseous soils are used; soil1, soil2, and soil3 with gypsum content (28.71%, 43.6%, and 54.88%) respectively, petroleum products (engine oil, fuel oil, and kerosene) are added to the soils with percentages (3%, 6%, 9%, and 12%) for each product. The result showed that specific gravity, liquid limit, optimum moisture content (O.M.C), and maximum dry density decreased with an inc

Abstract:

This research examines the interaction of alkali contaminants with both expansive and non-expansive soils, specifically black cotton soil and red soil, while assessing the effectiveness of sulphur and gypsum in restoring soil pH for geotechnical stability. Alkaline contamination, commonly caused by industrial effluents, construction activities, and agricultural practices, alters soil behavior by influencing its strength, swelling-shrinkage properties, and overall suitability for construction and infrastructure development. Laboratory experiments are conducted to evaluate the impact of alkalini

Biochar, a carbon-rich material derived from biomass pyrolysis, has gained considerable attention as a soil amendment for improving soil fertility and crop productivity. One of the key benefits of biochar is its ability to mediate soil acidity, influencing soil pH and buffering capacity. Biochar can act as a liming agent, raising soil pH in acidic soils, or as an acidifying agent, lowering pH in alkaline soils, through its alkaline or acidic functional groups, respectively. This property makes biochar a versatile tool for managing soil acidity in different agricultural systems. The application

Abstract:

A research about relationship between soil properties and crop yield was conducted in Pandai Sikek, Tanah Datar Region, center for cabbage and carrot production, West Sumatra in 2004 and 2005. Soil samples were collected from rainfed paddy soils by purposive random sampling. Soil samples were analyzed in Soil Laboratory, Agriculture Faculty and Agriculture Polytechnique Laboratory, Andalas University. Several soil physical properties analysed were soil bulk density and total soil pores by using gravimetric method, permeability with de Boodt method, soil water content at several pF values using

Abstract:

Saflufenacil, a pyrimidinedione herbicide, is used for contact and residual broadleaf weed control in various crops. Bioactivity of saflufenacil in soil was tested in greenhouse and laboratory studies on 29 soils representing a wide range of soil properties and geographic areas across the United States. A greenhouse bioassay method was developed using various concentrations of saflufenacil applied PPI to each soil. Whole canola plants were harvested 14 d after treatment, and fresh and dry weights were recorded. Nonlinear regression analysis was used to determine the effective saflufenacil dose

Abstract:

Vegetation changes caused by fire events are visible instantly but changes in soils are less apparent, and could be short-term, long-term or permanent in nature. Research has shown that soils undergo changes in their mineralogical, geochemical, physico-chemical and biological properties after a fire event that may vary depending on the intensity and duration of the fire, and the properties of the soil. Some of these properties make significant contributions towards soil’s ability to sorb contaminants. Changes in these properties could affect soil sorption complex and the effectiveness of remed

Remote sensing can provide visual indications of crop growth during production season. In past, spectral optical estimations were well performed in the ability to be correlated with crop and soil properties but were not consistent within the whole production season. To better quantify vegetation properties gathered via remote sensing, models of soil reflectance under changing moisture conditions are needed. Signatures of reflected radiation were acquired for several Mid German agricultural soils in laboratory and field experiments. Results were evaluated at near-infrared spectral region at the

Abstract:

Construction on these soils is found to be expensive because of their low bearing strength. Soil having poor bearing need stabilization to make it suitable for construction purpose. In this study coir (extracted from coconut) is used as natural fiber for stabilization of soil. Stabilization using natural fiber is a cost-effective and eco-friendly approach to improve properties of soil. The study is carried out to evaluate the effects of coir fiber on properties of soil. Coconut coir in the soil were varied from 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0% and various soil properties were studied.

Soil, itself means Soul of Infinite Life. Soil is the naturally occurring unconsolidated or loose covering on the earth’s surface. Physical properties depend upon the amount, size, shape, arrangement, and mineral composition of soil particles. It also depends on the organic matter content and pore spaces. Chemical properties depend on the Inorganic and organic matter present in the soil. Soils are the essential components of the environment and foundation resources for nearly all types of land use, besides being the most important component of sustainable agriculture.

Despite introducing automated irrigation technologies designed to enhance efficiency, many areas still need to rely on updated manual methods, leading to water wastage and reduced productivity. This study explores the potential of automated irrigation systems to improve water use efficiency by evaluating soil's physical and electrical properties in Bohol's greenhouses.

Abstract:

The thermal properties of swelling clay soils do not appear to have been previously studied, even though they should be different from those of non-swelling soils because of changes in pore size and structure with water content. We measured the thermal diffusivity of small discs cut from cores of a highly swelling black earth (Pellustert) using the pulse method, common in materials science but not previously applied to soils. Thermal conductivity was calculated from thermal diffusivity and heat capacity per unit volume. The behaviour of these thermal properties was indeed different from those
