Abstract

A research work conducted during 2020-21 at various land use planning of Kanpur Nagar (U.P.) to evaluate the fertility status of various land use planning on soil physico-chemical characteristics. The 504 representative soil samples with 3 depths viz. 0-15, 15-30 and 30-60 cm soil samples were taken with manually driven post hole auger and processed for soil analysis from different land use planning of Kanpur Nagar. Results revealed that physico-chemical properties viz. Bulk density, pH, Electrical Conductivity (E.C.), organic carbon (O.C.) varied vertically and horizontally in cultivated and fallow lands. The frequency distribution of soil bulk density of entire lands ranged 1.14 – 1.43 Mgm-3 and soil chemical properties, like, pH ranged from 7.1-8.9, the E.C. is found in ranged from 0.33 – 0.97 dS m-1. While organic carbon was ranged from 0.21- 0.68%.
