Soils investigation of Plantation Golden Grove.
1986
Khan Z. | Paul S. | Hollingsworth S.
The investigation was conducted to determine the suitability and extent of the soils for agricultural purposes. Soils in the area can be grouped as follows: 1) predominantly clay textured, occurring on relatively high topographies - they comprise 35 % of the area and have a high potential for agricultural production; 2) sandy textured soil, Ithaca, comprises 2 % of the area - fertility levels are low but with the use of chemicals or organic fertilizers, it could be made productive. Because of its physical characteristics it is suited for the cultivation of a wide range of crops; 3) low-lying soils comprise 63 % of the area and include the organic peat, Mara clay, Weldaad clay and Inki clay. They have a moderately high potential for agriculture. Their limitations however are poor nutrient status, spotted toxic conditions and susceptibility to flooding.
