PHYSIO-CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF SOIL

The present investigation was aimed for improving growth and yield of crop using waste products of different activities and also useful in ecological stability of soil environment. The experiment was conducted in the organic farming plot of the Institute of Agricultural Sciences, BHU, Varanasi durin[r]

A field experiment was conducted at Institutional Farm, Rajasthan College of Agriculture, Udaipur, (Rajasthan) during kharif, 2014 on clay loam soil. The experiment was laid out according to factorial randomized block design with three replications. The experiment comprised four fertility levels of[r]

The role of humic acid for enhancing biofertilization performance was studied on production potential of cabbage in alluvium soil. Application of Pseudomonas fluorescens (P. fluorescens) in combination with humic acid was evaluated. The results indicated that the P. fluorescens and humic acid both a[r]

The present investigation was carried out at experimental Farm of the Division of Fruit Science, Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology of Kashmir, Shalimar, Srinagar during the year 2011 and 2012 to study the physical and chemical properties of soil. The experiment was la[r]

It has been said that civilization owes its existence tothe 15-centimeter layer of soil covering the Earth’slandmasses. This layer of topsoil represents the rootzone for the majority of the world’s food and fibercrops. Soil is a dynamic, chemically reactive medium,[r]

An investigation was conducted in intensive rice growing block of Viruthachalam, Cuddalore district of Tamil Nadu. The major objectives were to assess the soil physico- chemical and biological quality parameters in rice soils and to compare soil quality indexing methods viz., Principal component ana[r]

The penetration depth of UV light in coconut water is more because of the UV absorption coefficient of coconut water is less, thus it facilitates UV rays to pass through it. By considering all above factors, the present study was aimed to study the effect of UV-C treatment on some physicochemical pr[r]

Therefore, it is very important to produce green energy and bio-products from lignocellulose which is the most abundant biomass (Pu et al., 2008; Zhu, 2008). Lignocellulose is hard to be dissolved and separated with common solvents due to its complex structure, strong intra- and inter-molecular hydr[r]

A study was carried out to assess the available nutrient status in soils of Kumbhi block under Lakhimpur (Kheri) district (U.P.). In that context 60 soil samples were collected from the different locations of Kumbhi block. Collected soil samples taken for laboratory analysis and analyzed the physico[r]

Soil properties are sensitive to changes in the soil environment as influenced by vegetation, climate and inputs and losses of biomass and nutrients. Thus, the cropping systems with different management practices are likely to influence soil properties. Grid based soil survey was conducted in Mudhol[r]

Keeping this in view, present study was undertaken to assess the impact of sludge addition on important soil biological properties under rice cultivation.

Totally 3 different irrigated paddy field soils were collected from Thanjavur district, Tamilnadu and their physico-chemical properties and population density of mycoflora were analyzed. Among them, 2 samples were sandy clay loamy soil and 1 sample was loamy soil. The physiochemical parameters were[r]

Surface soil of the farmer’s field from different village of Raisinghnagar block and
