  This study reprts results of field scale soil erosion assessment that employed survey methodology of rills conducted under actual farming condition at two contrasting topographies(hillslope and flatland),in northern part of Taraba State,Nigeria.The desire was to gain a better understanding of farmers reasons for cultivating hill slopes,while,flat land areas exist in the study region.

Retention of carbon(C)in arable soils has been considered as a potential mechanism to mitigate soil degradation and to sustain crop productivity.Hence,we appraised the 3-yr effect of different tillage
No-tillage,cover crops,and N fertilization play important roles in conserving or increasing soil organic carbon(SOC).However,the effects of their interaction are less well known,particularly in Asian
