Sustainable Population Units
(Two Year Storage Requirement)

POPULATION per soil unit=(area of unit*yield)* (percent utilized land)* ( area utilized for maize farming (80%)) * (remainder after losses due to transportation, spoilage, and pests(90%)) * (removal of seed stock for each year of crop failure (90%))/ annual consumption of maize per person (160 kg per person per year)

POPULATION per soil unit=(area of unit*yield)* (percent utilized land)*(.8)*(.92*.92*.92)/480

Or

POPULATION per irrigated soil unit=(area*yield)* 0.425/480)

POPULATION per floodwater soil unit=(area*yield)* 0.2125764/480

POPULATION per hill/slope soil unit=(area*yield)* 0.085/480
