| dc.description.abstract | In the present study, characterization and fertility status of Tal and Diara land under Bhagalpur District using Remote Sensing and GIS Technique was done along with surface and sub-surface samples, soil constraints and soil-site suitability for important crops of pedon 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. The crop production related constraints were also identified with appropriate land use and management technologies. The soils of the study area as per the criteria of taxonomic classification predominantly come under three orders namely, Entisols, Inceptisols and Vertisols as per 7th approximation of soil classification of Tal and Diara land of some selected district of Bhagalpur district. All the physical and chemical parameters were estimated by following standard procedure. The bulk density of pedons was bulk density of pedon Tal land varies from 1.31-1.48, However, bulk density of pedon 5 to 8 varies from 1.36-1.53. The pH, EC, OC, available N, P2O5, K2O, DTPA-Fe, Mn, Zn, and Cu of surface soil irrespective of profile varied from 7.40 – 8.75, 0.09 - 0.53 dSm-1, 0.17 – 0.77 %, 100.54 – 233.28 kg ha-1, 11.57 – 35.50 kg ha-1,74.76-206.42 kg ha-1,10.50 - 55.62 (mg kg-1), 3.65-28.42 (mg kg-1), 0.08-0.94 (mg kg-1) and 0.39-2.29 (mg kg-1), respectively. The surface and sub-surface samples of Tal land in respect of soil pH varies from 7.25 – 8.69 and 7.55-9.27, respectively. Whereas, In case of Diara land, surface and sub-surface samples were varies from 7.80 -8.48 and 7.71-9.46, respectively. Similarly, EC in Tal land 0.08-0.46 dSm-1 and 0.13-0.72 dSm-1, respectively. Whereas, In case of Diara land, surface and sub-surface samples were varies from 0.08-0.86 dSm-1 and 0.21-0.75 dSm-1, respectively. Similarly, The ESP value of Tal land of Pedon 1-4 varies from 5.05 to 6.15 percent and Diara land varied from 1.83 to 3.72 (%). Similarly, the CaCO3 percentage of Tal land was varies from 0.50 to 3.56 and Diara land 1.05 to 3.24 percent, respectively. The CEC surface and sub-surface of Tal and Diara land was low to medium. The organic carbon of surface and sub-surface samples of Tal land varies from 0.14 to 0.48 % and 0.12 to 0.44 %, respectively. Whereas, In case of Diara land, varies from 0.08-0.42 % and 0.08-0.39 % in surface and sub-surface , respectively. The available Nitrogen of surface and sub-surface samples of Tal land varies from 61.03 to 208 kg ha-1 and 56 -192 kg ha-1, respectively. Whereas, In case of Diara land, varies from 34 to 182 kg ha-1 and 32-168 kg ha-1 in surface and sub-surface, respectively. The available P2O5 of surface and sub-surface samples of Tal land varies from 16 to 57 kg ha-1 and 15-53 kg ha-1, respectively. Whereas, In case of Diara land, varies from 9-50 kg ha-1 and 8-47 kg ha-1 in surface and sub-surface, respectively. The available K2O of surface and sub-surface samples of Tal land varies from 117-400 kg ha-1 and 112-384 kg ha-1, respectively. Whereas, In case of Diara land, varies from 66-350 kg ha-1 and 64-336 kg ha-1 in surface and sub-surface, respectively. The soils associated with the pedon1 to pedon4 in Tal land (P1to P4) were highly suitable (S1) for cereal crop (paddy), vegetable crop (onion),Oilseed (soybean) and flower crop (marigold and tubrose). Whereas, moderately suitable (S2) for cereal crop (wheat, sorghum), vegetable crop (brinjal and Okra), cash crop (sugarcane) and fruit crop (Mango and Guava). Similarly, marginal suitable crop (S3) for plantation crop (oil palm). The soils associated with the Pedon-5, 6, 7 and 8 in Diara land (P5, P7 and P8) were highly suitable (S1) for vegetable crop (brinjal and Okra) and flower crop (marigold and tuberose). Whereas, moderately suitable (S2) for cereal crop (Paddy, wheat, sorghum), vegetable crop (onion), Oilseed (soybean) and fruit crop (Mango and Guava). Similarly, marginal suitable crop (S3) for plantation crop (oil palm) and cash crop (sugarcane). | en_US |
