Abstract :

Soil samples were collected from selected farmers of different cropping system under both irrigated and rain-fed conditions of Doddabelavangala Raitha Samparka Kendra (RSK), Doddaballapur (taluk) of Karnataka to evaluate the status of major and micronutrients as affected by different cropping systems. The fertility maps were prepared for the area and nutrient status was discussed in relation with physiographic position and cropping pattern. The nutrient status did not follow any distinct trend with respect to physiographic units and crops grown. Based on the overall assessment, the nutrient status in these soils was optimum.
