13th Meeting of the East African Specialist Committee for Soil Fertility and Crop Nutrition - 9th - 13th. September, 1974 : Summary of Research on Soil Fertility and Crop Nutrition at the University of Nairobi, Kenya

Abstract

Research in the Department of Soil Science reported here has been carried out during 1972-1974 by postgraduate students registered for higher degrees at the University of Nairobi. These students have worked under the guidance of Prof. P.M. Ahn, who is also Head of the Department. In addition, Mr. V. Da Cost a has carried out a number of independent soil survey and site evaluation studies for the Kenya Government and other parastatal organizations. With the arrival of two other members of staff in the middle of 1974, it is hoped that further research on soil fertility and soil microbiology will be on the pipeline.
