Abstract
Soil is the source for most of the essential nutrients required by crops for their healthy growth. These nutrients are not always enough in the soil for a plant to grow healthy. The soil analysis provides the farmer with an estimate of the amount of fertilizer nutrients needed to supplement those in soils. Soil is studied for its pH, texture, percent exchangeable sodium, percent organic matter, and salinity expressed as electrical conductivity, water holding capacity and the nutrients available to plants. The present study deals with analysis of 23 soil samples belonging to three different ecological regions.
