In semi-arid Kenya, the most dominatn soil types are of limited agricultural productivity due to crusting and compaction. The occurence of soil crusting and compaction is attributed to seasonal rainfall characteristics, physical soil properties and bad tillage practices. Soil crusting and compaction decrease rain water infiltration and increase surface runoff. Seasonal rainwater losses through increased runoff volumes reduce soil moistrue and hance result in agricultural drought. The objective of this sturdy was to examine the hydrological effects of two tillage practices with and without framyard manure on surface runoff and soil loss of crusting and compacting soils under field conditions at Katumani in semi-arid Kenya.
