Author(s): Bela Majila and Dr. Ranjana Shah
Abstract: The entire work program is based on soil analysis, which is an important tool to check the fertility status for crop production. Soil fertility indicators such as pH, available carbon, phosphorous, potassium, and minerals (Fe, Cu, Mn, Zn) content were identified. Different techniques like the glass electrode method (for pH), Walkey & Black method (for soil organic carbon), Truog method (for Phosphorus), Flame Photometry (for Potassium), turbidimetric method (for S), and Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (micronutrients) were employed, and results were analysed. The analytical results confirmed that organic matter content falls in the high range, soil pH alkaline to acidic, essential nutrients sulphur, phosphorous and potassium low to high and micronutrients Fe, Cu, and Zn fall in the high range except Mn in most of villages in Bageshwar district.
