A comparison between three legacy soil maps of Zambia at national scale: The spatial patterns of legend units and their relation to soil properties (2021)
Journal Article

We examined three soil maps of Zambia, two published at scales of 1:1 million – the Exploratory Soil Map of Zambia (ESMZ) and the Vegetation–Soil Map produced by Trapnell and colleagues in 1947 – and one at 1:3 million, the Soil Atlas of Africa (SAA)...

Spatial variability and mapping of soil fertility status in a high-potential smallholder farming area under sub-humid conditions in Zimbabwe (2021)
Journal Article

© 2021, The Author(s). A study was conducted to examine spatial variability of soil properties related to fertility in maize fields across varying soil types in ward 10 of Hurungwe district, Zimbabwe; a smallholder farming area with sub-humid conditi...
