Soil organic matter is the decomposed and partially decomposed remains of plants and animals in the soil and this help in nutrient recycling. This work evaluated the effect of compost types on various organic carbon fractions and microaggregation. Soil samples collected at 0-20 cm depth were analyzed for total organic carbon (TOC), free particulate organic carbon (fPoC), occluded particulate organic carbon (oPOC), acid-hydrolzable organic carbon (AHOC) and non-acid hydrolysable organic carbon (NHOC). Results show that TOC was highest (1.59%) in plots amended with compost from rice-husk and poultry made with cattle urine applied at 6t/ha and 9t/ha (1.43%). This trend was observed with other organic carbon fractions. Soil microaggregation was highest with application of the rice-husk composted with poultry manure and cattle urine applied at 9t/ha.

ABSTRACT The importance of concrete in modem society cannot be underestimated. There is no escaping from the impact of concrete on everyday life. Concrete is a composite material which is made of filler and a binder. Typical concrete is a mixture of fine aggregate (sand), coarse aggregate (rock), cement, and water. Nowadays the usage of concrete... Continue Reading

2. The Effect Of Rice Husk Ash And Grinded Rice Husk On The Compressive Strength Of Concrete

ABSTRACT Rice Husk Ash (RHA) is one of the most active research areas that encompass a number of disciplines including civil engineering and construction materials. Grinded rice husk (GRH) and RHA is an agricultural waste product which is produced in large quantities globally every year. As the rice husk is piling up every day, there is a pressure...

3. Effect of Surface Area on the Extraction of Silica from Rice Husk and Wheat Husk

Silicon dioxide , also known as silica (from the latin silex), is an oxide of silicon with the chemical formula SiO2, most commonly found in nature as quartz and invarious living organisms. In many parts of the world, silica is the major constituent of sand. Silica is one of the most complex and most abundant families of materials existing as a... Continue Reading

5. DEPTH AND TOPOGRAPHIC POSITION EFFECTS ON DISTRIBUTION OF SOIL ORGANIC CARBON IN RELATION TO AGRICULTURAL LAND USE AND MANAGEMENT IN IKOLE-EKITI, EKITI STATE.

Abstract Anthropogenic activities can destroy or drastically reduce the organic carbon contents of soils. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of two land use management practices (arable land and oil palm land), soil depth and topography on soil organic carbon contents. The study was carried out in Ikole-Ekiti, Ekiti State, Nigeria.... Continue Reading
