Soil Classification

, 2018
Project relevance: There are different types of soil at the project site. To know what exactly we deal with, we are required to classify each soil and determine its characteristics such as grain-size distribution and plasticity. This knowledge will allow us to select the most appropriate design method. The following section will explain how to classify

Impact of Land use on soil quality: Insights from the forest-savannah transition zone of Ghana

Heliyon
Land use changes have a profound impact on soil fertility and agricultural production systems in the Forest-Savannah Transition Zone (FSTZ) of Ghana. Soil erosion and shortened fallow periods exacerbate soil fertility loss, further degrading soil quality.
