Physicochemical Study and Ph Assessment of Soil

Soil health is the primary determinant of agricultural productivity and ecosystem stability in the Bilaspur district, a region characterized by its undulating terrain and diverse land-use patterns ranging from dense forest to intensive agricultural plains. Understanding the spatial variability of soil properties is essential for sustainable land management and precision farming. This research paper investigates the soil chemical environment across the Bilaspur district, focusing on the spatial variability of the soil reaction (pH) and its relationship with the local topography. The study specifically examines the transition between the regions characteristic Matasi (upland) and Kanhar (lowland) soil type to determine how these district profiles influence nutrient availability and agricultural potential.
