This research is part of the “Increasing production on sandy soils in low and medium rainfall areas of the Southern Region” project, 2019-2023. This project looked at why there is unused soil water at harvest in cropping systems on sandy soils, and the mitigation and amelioration options to improve this situation. The project investigated physical, chemical impediments and the biological constraints in sandy soils.
