ABSTRACT A study was undertaken to evaluate the nutrient fame of soils of Ghatpipariya in Seoni district, Madhya Pradesh, India during the year 2018-19. A total of 5 Series Soil samples were collected from different physiography-Soil relationship namely Plateau, Escarpment, Pediments and Alluvial Plain and analyzed for pH, electrical conductivity, organic carbon, available nitrogen, available P2O5 and available K2O, and available micronutrients (Zn, Mn, Fe & Cu) using standard analytical methods. Based of fertility ratings, pH of soils was neutral to moderately alkaline. Electrical conductivity of all the soils ranged from 0.07 to 0.26 dSm-1which are within the acceptable limit and the soils have no salinity hazard at present. Organic carbon content in soils ranged from 0.17 to 1.92 per cent in different horizons . Soils of Ghatpipariya -2 series have high organic carbon content, whereas, soils of Ghatpipariya -4, Ghatpipariya -5 series have low organic carbon content. The calcium carbone varied from 1.45 to 5.3 %. Cation exchange capacity of soils range from 39.1 to 62.6 cmol(p+)kg-1. Higher CEC values were observed in soils of Ghatpipariya -4 and Ghatpipariya -5. Based on the fertility parameters the soils are low in available N, low to very high in available P and medium to very high in available K. similarly available micronutrients viz. Fe, Mn and Cu were high in all the soils, while, deficiency of available Zn was observed in the soils of Ghatpipariya -1, Ghatpipariya -2, Ghatpipariya -3, Ghatpipariya -4 and Ghatpipariya -5. Based on soil characterization and fertility analysis the information generated will help in sustainable development and to enhance the crop productivity. |
