Abstract: Nutrient depletion has become more pronounced consequent to other exploitation of natural resources to meet the food requirement in view of an ever-increasing population. It is therefore important to examine the fertility status of soils from time to time. A systematic investigation was conducted on soil fertility status of the low and high yielding pomegranate orchards in Jalna district. Fifty pomegranate orchards were surveyed during 2016-17. The yield of pomegranate fruits obtained from selected pomegranate orchard was in between 7.82 t ha-1 to 45.67 t ha-1 with an average 23.23 t ha-1. TSS and reducing sugar were positively significant with CaCO3 and soil pH, respectively. Leaf Mn was showed positive and significant relation with exchangeable Na+s and Zn content of soil. The better management practices by the farmers ensure higher yields.
