Wheat growth and phytoavailability of copper and zinc as affected by soil texture in saline-sodic conditions [PDF]
Nutrient disorders in saline-sodic soils can adversely affect crop growth. In order to evaluate the growth response of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) to Cu and Zn and the phytoavailability of these essential elements, a pot experiment was conducted in ...

Improving the Hydraulic and Chemical Properties of Sandy Soil by Using a Mixture of Biochar and Clay
In recent years, food demand has risen due to rapid population surge. Meeting this food demand means more land is supposed to be cultivated. Yet, there are many areas in Sindh, Pakistan, particularly “Thar,” where crop yield is inadequate due to the ...

Yield performances of tomatoes (Lycopersicum esculentum) on organic manure buffered lateritic soils
Lateritic soils are found in many farms even though they have not been known to be encouragingly productive to farmers because of their non-supportive of agricultural products.

The dielectric properties of soil-water mixtures at microwave frequencies [PDF]
Recent measurements on the dielectric constants of soil-water mixtures show the existence of two frequency regions in which the dielectric behavior of these mixtures was quite different. At the frequencies of 1.4 GHz to 5 GHz, there were strong evidences
