The results are presented separately under the following headings: morphological, physical and chemical characteristics; leaching of nitrate under grain sorghum in a tropical monsoonal climate; and grain sorghum fertilizer requirements under dryland conditions. Representative soils of 3 widely occurring red earth families - Tindall, Blain and Emu - were sudied under the auspices of the National Soil Fertility Project. Grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor Dekalb E57) was used as the test plant.
