Abstract
This study looks at the physical and chemical properties of soil samples from the Sarguja district of Chhattisgarh, India. Physical and chemical properties of soil samples are extremely significant in agricultural fields. The characteristics of the soil have an impact on crop production. Soil samples were collected at a depth of 0–15 cm from 7 blocks in Sarguja district. Soil samples were analyzed for pH, electrical conductivity (EC), organic carbon percentage (OC %), soil color, soil texture, bulk density, porosity, micro-nutrients, and macro-nutrients. The sand, silt and clay percentages varied from 74.05 to 76.95%, 3.03 to 3.35% and 19.70 to 22.92%, respectively. The bulk density and pore space (%) found in this rock varied from 1.49 to 1.75 mg/m3 and 22.11 to 45.34%, respectively. There are several variables to consider, but the moisture content is the most important parameter. The properties of soil are studied in the laboratory, which is highly useful in agriculture. The result of the proposed study will establish some facts about the use of soil for various purposes, like domestic and agriculture.
