Analysis Of Soil Samples Of Bodla Block And Treatment For Soil Quality

Soil quality is a critical determinant of agricultural productivity and sustainability. This study evaluates the physico-chemical properties, nutrient status, and fertility constraints of soils in Bodla Block, aiming to identify deficiencies and recommend appropriate soil treatments. Soil samples were collected systematically from representative sites across the block and analyzed for pH, electrical conductivity, texture, organic carbon, macronutrients (N, P, K), and micronutrients (Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu) using standard laboratory procedures. The results indicate moderate fertility with variations in nutrient availability, highlighting nitrogen, phosphorus, and micronutrient deficiencies in certain locations. Organic amendments (compost, farmyard manure), inorganic fertilizers, and integrated treatments were evaluated for their effectiveness in improving soil quality. Integrated approaches combining organic, inorganic, and biofertilizer treatments proved most effective in enhancing nutrient content, correcting pH imbalances, and improving overall soil fertility. The study provides site-specific recommendations for sustainable soil management, supporting enhanced crop productivity and environmental sustainability in Bodla Block. These findings also serve as a baseline for future monitoring and precision soil management strategies.
