Assessment of Physico-Chemical Parameters of Selected Agricultural Fields, Anand, Gujarat, India

Abstract

 Soil is an important feature of ground which is very much essential for nourishment of innumerable ecosystems. Present study is based on investigation of agricultural areas in Anand, Gujarat with Rabi season crops from December 2016 to February 2017. It helps to know about expanse of effluence produced in selected zones. It gives indications of pollution in the soil which can be harmful to human health as well as the bionetwork also. It deals with study of selected physico-chemical parameters like, Electrical conductivity(mmhos/cm), pH, Temp (◦c), TDS (ppm), Bulk Density (g/cm3), Moisture (%),WHC (g/cm3), Chloride (mg/l), Salinity (%),Boron (mg/l), Nitrate (mg/l), Copper (mg/l), Chromium (mg/l), OC (%), In. phosphate (mg/l), Iron (mg/l), Sulfur (mg/l). Many of the parameters were inconsistent with the time and were above the acceptable edge, too.
