Soil aggregation, organic carbon and microbial Biomass as affected by tillage, residue management and cropping systems in tropical ferralsols of Western Kenya
Soil aggregates are important indicators of soil health, nutrient status and ability to resist erosion. This parameter is sensitive to soil disturbances that occasion disintegration of aggregate sizes, loss of organic carbon and physical killing of the soil dwelling macro- and micro-fauna. Numerous...
