Type: article

Abstract: This study investigates the availability of essential macronutrients-Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), and Potassium (K), pH, Electrical conductivity (EC) and organic carbon of soil under the Paddy-Chickpea Pea/Pea-Moong cropping system in the Gwalior district of Madhya Pradesh. The soil samples were collected from the four blocks of Gwalior district namely Morar, Ghatigoan, Dabra and Bhitarwar. The soil samples were analyzed in the Soil Science Laboratory, ITM University, and Gwalior. The results revealed that the soil of this area was neutral to slightly alkaline in reaction, low in organic carbon, low to medium in available nitrogen, low to high in available phosphorus and medium to high in available potassium with a normal electrical conductivity < 1 dS m-1.
