Various studies have suggested the possibility that food derived through subsistence agriculture in the Mseleni region of Maputaland contributes to malnutrition within the local community, particularfy within the high proportion of the population which suffers from a severe, disabling form of osteoarthritis. This study was conducted to determine if the application of local crushed rock or black clay to these nutrient deficient, sandy soils would increase available nutrient concentrations and improve the growth of plants in the ameliorated soil. 2014-12-03T03:31:17Z 2014-12-03T03:31:17Z 1999 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/9881 eng application/pdf Department of Geological Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
