SPATIO-TEMPORAL VARIATION OF SOIL PROPERTIES ON CASSAVA PRODUCTION IN SOUTHERN CROSS RIVER STATE, SO
Because of its versatility of uses and adaptability to a wide range of climatic and edaphic conditions, cassava is one of Africa's most significant stable food and industrial crops. The goal of this study is to determine the impact of soil parameters on cassava production in Nigeria's Southern Cross River State. Nine cultivated cassava fields had soil samples taken at random. In each of the four cardinal directions, four 7.0 km long transects were built. Along the transect, nine soil profiles were chosen, two in each direction and the beginning point; soil samples were taken at each horizon(s) in each profile and physico-chemical parameters were examined. From a total area of 10,000 m2, ten cassava plots of 10 m2 were chosen at random.
