Project Abstract

Abstract
Land use change is a significant driver of environmental change, affecting soil health and nutrient availability. This research project aims to investigate the impact of land use change on soil health and nutrient availability in order to better understand the implications for sustainable land management practices. The study will focus on assessing how different land use types, such as agricultural, urban, and natural areas, influence soil health indicators and nutrient availability. The research will be conducted using a combination of field surveys, laboratory analyses, and statistical modeling techniques to assess soil properties and nutrient levels in different land use types. Soil health indicators, such as soil organic matter content, pH, nutrient levels, and microbial activity, will be measured to evaluate the overall health of the soil. Nutrient availability will be assessed by analyzing the concentrations of key nutrients, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, in the soil. The findings of this study will provide valuable insights into the impact of land use change on soil health and nutrient availability. By understanding how different land use types affect soil properties and nutrient levels, policymakers and land managers can make informed decisions to promote sustainable land management practices. This research will contribute to the growing body of knowledge on soil health and nutrient dynamics in changing landscapes, and help to guide future land use planning and management strategies.
