Soil Atlas of Africa

The Soil Atlas of Africa is a comprehensive guide that illustrates the diverse types and conditions of soil across the continent. It helps us understand how soils support agriculture, ecosystems, and livelihoods, highlighting variations in fertility, texture, and nutrient content. By mapping soil features, the atlas informs sustainable land management and environmental policies, ensuring that land use promotes productivity while conserving natural resources. It serves as an essential resource for scientists, policymakers, farmers, and anyone interested in Africa’s land health and sustainable development.
