dc.description.abstract | Present i n v e s t i g a t i o n "Characterisation of predominant s o i l s e r i e s in respect of p e r t i n e n t physicochemical p r o p e r t i e s in Mula Command Area" was c a r r i e d out a t Mahatma Phule A g r i c u l t u r a l U n i v e r s i t y , Rahuri, D i s t. Ahmednagar (M.S.) during the 1982-83. Predominant six s o i l s e r i e s Otur, Sawargaon, Nimone, Sibnery, Paragaon and Torkewadi existed on Central Farm, Mahatma Phule A g r i c u l t u r a l University, Rahuri were s e l e c t e d for the study of s o i l moisture r e t e n t i o n and physico-chemical p r o p e r t i e s. The s o i l s e r i e s of Otur, Sawargaon and Nimone a r e clayey in t e x t u r e and Sibnery, Paragaon and Torkewadi Sandy clay loam t o clay loam. The clayey t e x t u r e of s o il s e r i e s show-s the highest amount of s o i l water r e t e n t i on compared to a t d i f f e r e n t tension where other l i g h t textured s o i l s e r i e s. In general Nimone soil series showes highsurface area (466.00 to 458.36 m2/g), C£C (56.70 to 55.16 meq/100 g) , soil moisture retention (42.39 to 38.15%), and clay percent (61.26) Sawargaon soil series showes high pH (8.7) and EC (0.50 mmhos/cm at 25) for surface layer. While Sibnery high Organic carbon (0.88%) content, where lowest organic carbon (0.40%) content i s observed in Torkewadi soil series. | en_US |
