Abstract:
From the results of mechanical and chemical analysis of the soil it has been found that due to Jhum cultivation the clay fraction (active particles) and water holding capacity of soils were decreased and pH of soils fell towards acid side. Available phosphorus, organic carbon, available nitrogen, total exchangeable metallic cations, exchangeable calcium and available potassium in soils were decreased considerably.
