Physicochemical Assessment of Soil Around Abattoirs in Akwanga Local Government Area, Nasarawa State, Nigeria
Abstract
Abattoir waste eventually enters the surrounding soil, causing important environmental consequences that should be under constant surveillance. This calls for a need to investigate the physicochemical parameters of soils around abattoirs of Akwanga Local Government Area, Nasarawa State, Nigeria. Soil from eight (8) abattoirs with respective control sites were sampled and analyzed for physicochemical parameters. Findings were subjected to t-test, chi-square and correlation analysis at p
