SOIL MACRO- AND MICRO- NUTRIENT STATUS OF CHANDEL DISTRICT, MANIPUR-INDIA
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 15
Abstract
An experiment examining the macro-and micro-nutrients of various soils of Chandel district, Manipur (India) was conducted to investigate the soil fertility and micro-nutrient position and association between them. Surface soil (0 to 30 cm) was examined for diethylene-triaminepentaacetate (DTPA) - extractable soils. The mean values for DTPA-extractable Zn, Cu, Mn, Fe and hot water extractable B in relation to some chemical properties in 26 representative soils. The mean values for DTPA-extractable Zn, Cu, Mn, Fe and hot water extractable B were 0.23, 0.55, 8.87, 22.93 and 0.48 mg kg-1, respectively. Existing mean values of N, P2O5, K2O and SO4-S were 495.7, 15.6, 241.3 and 1.7 kg ha-1, respectively. Allocation of Zn, Cu, Mn, Fe and B were inclined optimistically by pH, EC and Soil organic carbon content. Our investigation resulted in the fact that micro- nutrient cations were considerably associated with each other signifying the vibrant symmetry between them. Each soil sample was adequate in available micro- nutrient cations excluding zinc.
