Evaluation of Soil Quality in Arid Western Fringes of the Nile Delta for Sustainable Agriculture

Evaluation of Soil Quality in Arid Western Fringes of the Nile Delta for Sustainable Agriculture

Egypt is currently witnessing an extensive desert greening plan with a target of adding one and a half million feddans to the agricultural area. The present study evaluates the soil quality in the western desert fringes of the Nile Delta using three indicator datasets, which involve the total datase...
