Characterization of Soil Quality from some Farms of Ghatanji Taluka Region, Dist.Yavatmal (M.S.)
Abstract
The quality of soil and availability of water are essential factors for the good yield of the crop. Hence it is necessary to analyze some quality parameters of the soil to determine the quality of soil. So in the present study is undertaken to determine the physico-chemical characteristics of some samples of soil from some farms of nearby villages of Ghatanji taluka region, Dist. Yavatmal.The soil characterization was carried out with respect to particle size distribution, bulk density, maximum water holding capacity, available water capacity, hydraulic conductivity, soil pH, electrical conductivity, cation exchange capacity, free calcium carbonate and organic carbon. The important observation during the study was that the parameters were varying for farm to farm of nearby villages. The overall quality of the soil in the study area is good and soil is not getting polluted as there is no industrial waste problem in the region.
