| contents | <p><span>This study investigates the physico-chemical properties of soil from Gaura Village, located in Pratappur, Surajpur District, Chhattisgarh, India. Soil quality plays a critical role in agricultural productivity and environmental health, necessitating an in-depth analysis of its fundamental characteristics. Samples were collected systematically across the region, and a comprehensive analysis was conducted to evaluate parameters such as pH, electrical conductivity, bulk density, particle density, porosity, water-holding capacity, organic carbon content, and macro- and micro-nutrient concentrations, including nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, copper, and iron. The findings revealed a moderately acidic to neutral pH range, optimal electrical conductivity, and sufficient levels of organic carbon, indicating fertile conditions for crop cultivation. However, variations in micro-nutrient levels and water retention properties suggest localized differences that could affect agricultural practices. The study underscores the importance of regular soil assessments to maintain soil health and sustain agricultural outputs in Gaura Village. Furthermore, the results provide a valuable baseline for implementing soil management strategies tailored to the region's unique agro-climatic conditions.</span></p> |
