Description

Understand the unique challenges of tropical soil management with this academic text from Springer. The book examines how the geological history of tropical Africa has resulted in old, highly weathered parent materials that lack essential bases and phosphate-bearing minerals. This geological legacy creates specific constraints for agricultural productivity in the region. As population density increases, traditional farming methods like long fallow periods are being challenged. This publication addresses the shift from stable, sustainable systems to the modern reality where landless farmers must cultivate marginal lands. It provides necessary context for those studying the transition from traditional cropping to modern intensive agriculture in West Africa. This volume is part of the Developments in Plant and Soil Sciences series, making it a valuable resource for researchers and professionals focused on soil science and agricultural development in tropical climates.

Key Features

Analyzes the impact of ancient geological history on modern West African soil fertility and mineral availability.

Explores the transition from traditional fallow-based farming systems to modern intensive cultivation methods.

Provides insight into the challenges faced by landless farmers working on marginal lands in densely populated areas.

Examines the specific lack of bases and phosphate-bearing minerals in highly weathered tropical soils.

Part of the professional Developments in Plant and Soil Sciences series for academic and research use.
