Nigeria should be one

The Soil Science Society of Nigeria was founded in 1969 to advance the study of soil through the promotion of research and education. The Society promotes research by organizing conferences each year and by the publication of its scientific journal, the Nigerian Journal of Soil Science.

The objects of the Society are:

• To foster the pursuit and understanding of soil science in Nigeria
• To disseminate knowledge in soil science through publications, demonstrations, symposia, seminars, lectures, etc.
• To promote the interest of soil scientists and farmers
• To be in close collaboration with societies having related objects both in Nigeria and other parts of the world.
