Abstract

GPS based 337 random surface (0–15 cm) soil samples were collected from all 19 blocks of district Sitapur, Uttar Pradesh during May and June 2014. The collected soil samples were analyzed for available S, Zn, Fe, Cu, Mn and B. The analytical results showed that the deficiencies of these nutrients were to the extent of S 40.95%, Zn 38.29%, B 16.91%, Fe 8.90%, Cu 6.82% and Mn 6.23% in the soil samples. Significant positive correlations were found between O. C. and nutrients in the question of district Sitapur, Uttar Pradesh. Considering critical nutrient index as 1.5, none of the analyzed nutrients came in low category. Negative correlations were also observed between nutrients with pH and CaCO3 except boron which were positively correlated with CaCO3.
