Standard soil survey was carried out in Western Kenya to establish representative research sites on the basis of landforms and other physiographic attributes. Soil profiles were characterized at Emalomba (Nambale District) designated (EMA-P1) and at Bukhalalire (Butula District) named BUMA-P1. Both pedons formed from in-situ weathering of granitic rocks under ustic moisture and iso-hyperthermic temperature regimes. Fourteen soil samples from genetic horizons were analyzed for physico-chemical properties. Both pedons had dark brown sandy clay and sandy clay loam topsoils overlying dominantly clayey subsoils. Both pedons indicate clay eluviation-illuviation as a Original Research Article |
