ABSTRACT
For efficient utilization of soil and water resources, soil testing of such farm was carried out in Nashik. Experimental (Puriya park) farm for providing comprehensive information characterized. Representative soil samples from each of twelve plots of Puriya park farm were collected. The soil survey of representative area is completed by plane table survey method. The soil samples are tested in laboratory for determining various soil properties viz., Soil pH, soil electrical conductivity, soil colour, soil texture, liquid limit, plastic limit, bulk density and soil nutrients like organic carbon content, gypsum content, soil calcium carbonate, available nitrogen, available potassium and available phosphorus. From result obtained after analysis data filled into the software and prepared soil fertility software.
A standard soil fertility map is a two dimensional document presented on a paper or on various other kind of supports and gives greatly reduced, simplified pictures of the spatial organization of soils in the natural environment showing the soil properties and available soil nutrients. The work is carried out for preparation of soil fertility map of Experimental (Puriya park) farm which belongs to K. K. Wagh Education society, Nashik. The Puriya park farm is situated in the Mhasrul. The area of farm is about 7.86 ha. There are 12 plots in the farm.
