This paper presents data on diversity and abundance of soil macrofauna in various land use systems in Taita (natural forest, plantation forest, fallow, coffee, napier, and maize, Horticulture. Each was sampled for macrofauna using three sampling methods (monolith,
transect and pitfall trapping). Seventy eight (78) genera/species were recorded across the different land use systems of Taita. Rényi diversity profile indicated no significant differences in species richness across land use systems as reflected by the very close

There has been tremendous changes in soil use and management in the River Njoro Watershed during the last three decades. Formerly large-scale farms converted into smallholder farms and plantation forests have gradually been lost. These changes in soil use have brought in different soil use and management approaches that have triggered soil erosion and other forms of land degradation. Up to 8.6 Kg of soil, loss per hectare from the cultivated soils has reportedly been lost in one storm. This massive soil loss was probably due to reduced aggregate stability and hydraulic conductivity.

Due to the increased concerns about the effect of agrochemicals
on soil health and soil biodiversity, use of
biological methods has become most acceptable
alternative methods for farmers to control soil
pathogens during crop production. A study was
therefore undertaken to determine the occurrence of
nematode destroying fungi in Taita Taveta with the
aim of isolating and characterizing them for biological
control of plant parasitic nematodes. Twenty eight
fungal isolates, distributed in three genera, were

This research paper evaluates land tenure and land registration process in Maua
Location of Meru North district of Kenya. It comes at a time when Kenyans are
pressurizing the government increasingly to issue title deeds not only at the Coast
province but also all over the country (GoK -Ministry of Lands). Maua Location is of
concern owing to the fact that the land registration process has been on going since
1966. This is a long time (43 years) for the land registration process not to have been

The study was undertaken to investigate how land use and soil fertility management practices affect the occurrence of nematode destroying fungi. The aim of the study was to harness the potential of these fungi to control the plant parasitic nematodes in the study area which is a very important vegetable catchment in the Coast Province of Kenya
