R. B. Marathe | C. P. Sawant
Abstract: This study assesses the soil fertility status of some part of Shahada tehsil of Nandurbar District, Maharashtra. In total five soil samples were collected from nearby Shirud village and analyzed for the major soil physical and chemical properties. The study reveals that N, P and micronutrients are deficient in all the sampled profiles. The results of total and available N, P and K contents as well as total Fe, Mn, Cu and Zn contents in the soils were reported. Mineralogical studies are carried out with the help of XRD and SEM technique.
