Assessment of Soil Fertility from Various Areas of Chandrapur District (M. S.) India

Abstract: The present study aims to analyse certain physicochemical properties of soil at different agricultural areas of Chandrapur District to assess soil quality and the make action plan before planting to manage soil nutrients for maximum crop production. The soil parameters like colour, pH, EC, organic carbon, nitrogen, potassium and phosphorous, copper, iron, manganese and zinc were analysed. The chemical analysis reveals that there was a variation in parameters and nutrients of soil samples. The results of the study confirms the low to medium levels of phosphorous, potassium, copper, iron, manganese and zinc and required treatment before planting.
