COMPARATIVE STUDY OF PHYSICOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF SOILS OF BARNA AND JAMNER STREAMS

摘要

The present study was carried out for the physicochemical analysis of soils of Barna and Jamner streams. The physicochemical parameters analyzed were pH, total dissolved solids, electrical conductivity, chloride, total alkalinity, nitrate and orthophosphate. During the present study, all parameters showed increased values in postmonsoon except chloride. It was observed during the study that Barna has rich forest and vegetation cover on both the banks, while as the Jamner is under anthropogenic pressure which caused deterioration of soil quality of Jamner.
