    The soil was characterized as having a silty clay loam texture, with pH of 7.1, electrical conductivity of 5.12 dS m-1, bulk density of 0.13 Mg cm-3, and organic carbon content of 821 g kg-1. Available nutrients in the soil included nitrogen (229 kg ha-1), phosphorus (14.5 kg ha-1), potassium (236 kg ha-1), calcium (238 c mol(p+) kg-1), and magnesium (1.12 c mol(p+) kg-1).
