Rapid population expansion has made food security a global concern for humanity, necessitating sustainable assessment of natural resources. Well evaluated and managed soil is one the most significant resources that can assist close gap between supply demand to attain security. A precise land productivity (LP) essential use management. The primary aim this research predict index (LPI) certain locations on Egypt’s northwest coast under current conditions using quality indicators (SQIs)....
HE POPULATION surge in Egypt has led to the conversion of agricultural land into urban areas, necessitating urgent expansion new particularly interference zone between Nile valley and desert regions.To address this issue, research study aims at assess temporal spatial cover changes West Samlout area, El-Minia government, using remote sensing data evaluate capability suitability for some crops.The located Western Desert Egypt, was analyzed multi-temporal Landsat imagery (2011, 2016 2021)...
Expanding projects to reclaim marginal land is the most effective way reduce use pressures in densely populated areas, such as Egypt’s Nile Valley and Delta; however, this requires careful, sustainable planning. This study assessed agricultural potential of El-Dabaa area northern region Western Desert, Egypt. It focused on assessing capability, evaluating crop suitability, mapping soil variability, calculating water requirements for twenty different crops. In work, we evaluated capability...
Due to the rapid growth of population in Egypt and scarcity land water resources, effective management these resources has become a very urgent necessity achieve sustainable agricultural development. Consequently, suitability assessment is an important tool manage appropriately. The objective this study was use geostatistical approach geographical information system (GIS) evaluate for some essential crops Toshka region, Egypt. Soil parameters such as gravel content, soil texture, pH, EC,...
Assessing and mapping the geographical variation of soil properties is essential for precision agriculture to maintain sustainability plants. This study was conducted in El-Ismaillia Governorate Egypt (arid zones), establish site-specific management zones utilizing certain parameters area. The goal map out variability some properties. One hundred georeferenced profiles were gathered from area using a standard grid pattern 400 × m. Soil such as pH, salinity (EC), organic carbon (SOC), calcium...
Dakhla Oasis represents one of the high priority regions for future development in Egypt. It is major depressions western desert oasis located South Western Desert Egypt between longitudes 28°15' - 29° 40' E and latitudes 25° 00' 26° N. Study area covers about120000 feddan it main challenging sustainable development. Thesoils were classified as Typic Haplargids, Torriorthents, Torripasamments, Haplotorrerts Vertic Torriorthents.Land capability assessment was done to define suitable areas...
The continuously rising demand for food production has emphasized the importance of efficient land evaluation systems in agriculture. This research study aimed to estimate crop suitability and capability some new reclamation areas along El-Dabaa axis north-western desert Egypt, which will participate planning prospective projects at reclaiming area. In order represent different geomorphic units area under investigation, 115 soil profiles were dug. Subsequent laboratory analyses conducted...
Among crucial factors that control flooding events are extreme climate, urban growth, and mismanagement. Islands in the Nile River have experienced successive cycles of drying due to recent rainy years Basin countries. This paper focuses on impact floods amounts ammonium-N released, total concentrations heavy metals, enzyme activities, microbial biomass (C N) flood soils 11 islands. Field moist their airdried counterparts were collected from outskirts island incubated for 15 days at 30 °C be...
The objectives of this work are to assess soil suitability and capability for agricultural use in Al-Hwallah region, North-western coast Egypt by accomplish the agriculture outgrowth using Land Use Suitability Evaluation Tool (LUSET) Stori index. study area is located coastal plain Matrouh Government. It delimited longitudes 27° 32' 0" – 35' E latitudes 31° 7' 12' N with an about 13.65 km2. Fourteen profiles were dug pedo-morphologically described. Thermic torric common temperature moisture...
T HE AIM of this work was to investigate land capability and soil suitability Wadi El Heriga, north western coast zone (NWCZ) Egypt using the Microcomputer Land Elevation Information system (MicroLEIS).To achieve objective,a digital elevation model (DEM) Landsat 8 image were usedto extract landform units investigated area.Eighteen profiles dug represent different landforms.Soil samples collected prepared for laboratory analysis.The correlation between landforms data carried out then map...
The objectives of this study were to assess the land capability using Storie Index and Cervatana model suitability by LUSET Almagra for some coastal soils in Egypt. Twenty-seven soil profiles dug morphologically described represent all physiographic units. Landsat image, DEM, geological map, field laboratory work used create physiographic-soil map relationship. Based on modified Index, classified into four grades (grade 2, 3, 4 5). these three classes, S2, S3 N. indicated that 4.71 % area is...
Soil spatial variation is very valuable in deciding the suitable cropping system and appropriate agricultural management of lands. This research paper was done to measure some soil characteristics, western farm Faculty Agriculture, Cairo University, Giza province, Egypt. Soils studied area were classified as Typic Torrifluvents. 100 samples gathered at depth 35 cm during 2016. Sampling designee by a grid systematic sampling system, using GPS. Samples spacing 30*30 m2. Some characteristics...
Sugarcane is an economic crop and one of the most dominant crops worldwide. This research aim was to evaluate impacts long-term sugar cane monoculture on some groundwater physicochemical biological properties as indicators water quality. Survey study covering belt area El-Minia Governorate, Egypt conducted. revealed that suitability for irrigation falls under degree "severe" use restriction, continuous this may increase salinity problem in alluvial soils. Groundwater highly contaminated by...
Assessing the soil hydropedological processes play a significant role for watershed management. Many models can be used such processes. Wadi El Raml is one of main wadis extended from Fuka to Libyan-Egyptian border in Northwestern Coast Egypt (NWCE). The problem this area that most rainfall water with sediments runs off Mediterranean Sea which makes it challenge save and water. Hydropedological study were utilized estimate surface runoff, infiltration, sediment yields based on multiple...
The present work aims at using GIS, remote sensing and soil data, as a mean for detection identification of Petrocalcic Petrogypsic horizons in the cultivated areas Maryout region, North-Western Coast Egypt.The area under investigation bounded by longitudes 29° 35` 13.60˝ 57` 03.25˝East latitudes 30° 45` 00.15˝ 56` 35.47˝North with total about 757.80 km 2 (180428.57feddans).Remote Sensing (RS) GIS are incorporated to execute base map.Results thirty nine profiles located studied were used...
