The doctoral thesis explores the relationship between the basement complex rocks and soil formation on the Jos Plateau, emphasizing their significance as parent materials for approximately half of the region's soils. It highlights the crucial role these soils play in agriculture, yet notes a lack of comprehensive information regarding their formation and properties. Understanding these aspects is vital for promoting sustainable management and utilization of the soils, ensuring their continued productivity for agricultural purposes.
