Author(s): Gourav, Rajneesh, NK Sankhyan and RP Sharma
Abstract: The present investigation was undertaken in the ongoing long-term fertilizer experiment initiated during 1972 at experimental farm of Department of Soil Science, Himachal Pradesh Agricultural University, Palampur (India). Different forms of soil acidity (total acidity, total potential acidity, pH dependent acidity, extractable acidity, exchangeable acidity and non-exchangeable acidity) significantly and positively correlated with organic carbon, available NPK, CEC and micronutrient cations, whereas negatively correlated with soil pH. Besides, different fractions of sulphur i.e. available S, water soluble S, heat soluble S, organic S and total S significantly and positively correlated with organic carbon, available NPK and CEC, whereas non significant negatively correlated with soil pH
