基金The authors express acknowledgement to the Department of Soil Science and Land Management of the Federal University of Agriculture,Abeokuta for giving access to their Soil laboratory to carry out some soil related experiments.Yam farmers in the various locations are also highly appreciated for giving us access to their yam fields during the harvesting period.They displayed a high level of patience and understanding.
