Abstract

The present study delineated the available sulphur, micronutrients (Zn, Fe, Cu, Mn and B) and multinutrient status of soil of district Auriaya (U. P.). For this, GPS based 187 random surface soil samples (0–15 cm) were collected from all seven blocks of Auriaya district, Uttar Pradesh during October and November 2014. The collected soil samples were analyzed for available S, Zn, Fe, Cu, Mn and B and data were computed for micronutrient deficiency. The analytical results showed that the deficiencies extent of these nutrients was in the order of Zn 43.32%, S 36.36%, Boron 17.11%, Fe 7.49%, Cu 4.28% and Mn 2.67%, in the soil samples of district Auriaya, Uttar Pradesh. The multinutrient deficiencies were recorded as 1% each for B+Zn and S+Zn, and 0.5% each for S+B+Zn and S+B.
