ABSTRACT
This study was undertaken to identify the factors responsible for declining of sugarcane production in Savannah Sugar Company (Dangote Group). Soil samples were collected from the field within the irrigated plots P1, G2 and K2. The pH and EC were determined using the pH meter and EC meter, respectively while Ca,Mg and OM were determined using titration methods. Na and K were determined by flame photometry method. The results of the analysis showed that the range of pH values were from 5.56-7.6, indicating the soil pH from slightly acidic to slightly alkaline. The pH values obtained by Kenting Africa Resource Service Division LTD (1975) from a depth of 0-60cm range from 5.2-7.6 which also showed that the soil was slightly acidic to slightly alkaline. The average mean value of EC was 0.45-0.81 dS/m indicating low concentration of soluble salts. The Exchangeable Sodium Percentage (ESP) of the soil on the average ranged between 0.028-0.029 (2.8-2.9%) which was below the threshold of 15% (Mohsen et.al, 2009).These indicate that the soil is low in salinity and sodicity. The study reveals that, the reason for the decline in sugarcane production was not soil quality, but rather due to two factors deduced from the checklist administered during the study. The factors are categorized into two; Technical and Managerial Factors. These were importation of environmentally non-compactible seedlings, over ageing of the sugarcane, worn-out and obsolete equipment and inadequate workforce
