These soils are generally well drained and mostly sandy-loam and loamy soil in plains, while in the valleys there are deposits of hydromorphic soils, which occupy the flood plains of the rivers.

The vegetation here suffers from anthropogenic disturbance through cutting down of trees for fuel wood, cultivation, and construction works. Also animal grazing is very high, coupled with seasonal bush burning which is prominent during the dry season. The vegetation has been reduced to grasses, shrubs and parkland; few tall trees are found, mostly along water courses. </p><p>The parkland trees are found in the open cultivated land, with shrubs found almost everywhere except areas where cultivation is being practiced. Common trees found in the area include <i><a href="/wiki/Isoberlinia_doka" title="Isoberlinia doka">Isoberlinia doka</a></i>, <a href="/wiki/Parkia_biglobosa" title="Parkia biglobosa">African locust bean</a>, <a href="/wiki/Faidherbia" title="Faidherbia">gao tree</a>, <a href="/wiki/Khaya_senegalensis" title="Khaya senegalensis">African mahogany</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Magnifera_indica&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Magnifera indica (page does not exist)">mango</a>, and several others. </p><p>There is also large expense of green grasses especially during the wet season.

These activities include food and cash crop production, livestock rearing, poultry trading and crafts making. </p><p>The major system of farming practiced is the subsistence farming by peasant farmers, with few people invested in commercial farming which produces large quantity of agricultural products. A little dry season farming is practiced in the area by people living close to the rivers. Tomatoes, pepper, vegetables, onions, okra and sugar-cane are grown in the Fadama areas. These additional products attract traders from surrounding urban centres like Kachia, Kafanchan and Kaduna town, thereby constituting a major source of income. </p><p>Animal rearing is also an important occupation which is carried out in a form of subsistence mixed farming, apart from among the Fulani in the area who depend largely on cattle rearing. These animals supply organic manure to farm lands, provide income and also are used for consumption. Animals such as cattle, goats, pigs, sheep and poultry are the predominant animals reared in the area. Trading activities also form another vital occupation that combines both agricultural and non-agricultural commodities made from crafts. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2
