The recent soil fertility evaluations are evidence of the serious development challenges that many agricultural regions in Egypt; and with growing food demand, soil evaluation will become even more important for the regions in the coming years. The soils studied revealed that the highest ions concen

There is an emerging importance for improving the productivity of sandy soils, and enhancing the efficiency of feeding use, especially with the newly reclaimed soil in Egypt. The present study aims to assess the influence of bentonite and nano bentonite application on the physical and chemical prope

The present study aims to assess the influence of bentonite and nano bentonite application on the physical and chemical properties of sandy soils. Nano-particles of bentonite were prepared by Sonochemical, and bentonite and nano bentonite were characterized by (XRD), (XRF), (AFM), surface area and (
