Abstract:
Soil samples were collected from 5 blocks of the Dehradun district of two depth viz. 0-15 cm and 15-30 cm for the assessment of the chemical properties of soil of Dehradun district, Uttarakhand was carried out in 2018-19. Ten sampling points in different villages were selected for the analysis. Chemical analysis comprised of soil pH which ranges from 6.2 to 7.84. The EC ranges from 0.217 to 0.49 dSm^-1. The O.C ranges from 0.76 to 1.14%. The O.M ranges from 2.18 to 1.31%. The N ranges from 390.2 to 149.1 kg ha^-1. The P ranges from 16 to 23 kg ha^-1. The K ranges from 76.3 to 183.7 kg ha^-1. The Ca ranges from 11 to 24 (mg/g) The Mg ranges from 8.26 to 22.29 (mg/g), The Na ranges from 15 to 31(ppm), The Fe ranges from 0.01 to 0.22 (ppm), The Zn ranges from 0.0 to 0.03 (ppm) and The Cu ranges from 0.0 to 0.68 (ppm).
