Abstract

The objectives of this study were to examine the results of 12 sampling locations and determine the availability of macronutrients in the soil of these soil samples. Soil samples were collected at the depth of 0-15 cm and 15-30 cm respectively. Soil textural classes were Sandy clay loam. The Water Holding Capacity varies from (38.24 to 45.84%), Bulk Density varies from (1.32 Mg m-3 to 1.48 Mg m-3). Particle Density varies from (2.31 Mg m-3 to 2.45 Mg m-3). The soil was reported to be in good physical condition, with % Pore Space (43.49% to 49.16%). The pH of soil is alkaline in nature (7.25 to 8.92) and the Electrical Conductivity (0.18 to 0.48 dSm1) was suitable for all crops. Organic carbon was found low to medium (0.33 to 0.48%) these soils had low nitrogen levels (200.00 kg ha-1 to 220.00 kg ha-1). Phosphorus (16.24 kg ha-1 to 26.58 kg ha1) is found medium to high. Potassium (225.24 kg ha-1 to 277.51 kg ha-1) is found medium in range. Calcium (4.02 to 5.45 meq 100g-1) and Magnesium (1.92 to 2.76 meq 100g-1) are sufficient in this soil. There is an including awareness of the need to pay greater attention in the role of macronutrients enhancement in the soil for good soil health and proper nutrition of plant so as to attain optimum economic yield and soil is suitable for all major tropical and sub-tropical crops.
