“…Acidic soil reaction might be the reason for low P content in these soils. This result agrees with findings of Deshmukh (2012) [7] , Pandit et al, (2016) [20] and Das et al, (2010) [6] .…”

The present investigation was carried out for evaluation of the status of DTPA-Zn, Fe, Mn, and Cu in relation with physico-chemical properties in soils of Birbhum district, West Bengal. Total 90 surface soil samples were collected from three different blocks namely Md. Bazar, Nalhati and Bolpur. Collected soil samples were analyzed for pH, electrical conductivity, organic carbon, textural class, Available P and DTPA-extractable micronutrients using standard analytical methods. In general, textural class ranged from sandy loam to sandy clay loam. Soils were strong to moderately acidic in reaction. Electrical conductivity was found in normal range. Soil organic carbon status ranged from 0.24 to 0.81% and was low in available P status. The status of available Zn was sufficient to high level while status of available Fe, Mn and Cu was high. The DTPA-extractable zinc content in the surface soils under study varied from 0.37 to 1.28 mg kg -1 with an average value 0.856 mg kg -1 . The available iron, manganese and copper contents in soils ranged from 36.8-45.1, 15.1-17.9 and 2.5-3.2 mg kg -1 respectively. From the correlation study it was found that soil pH significantly and negatively correlated with available zinc (r= -0.233*), iron(r= -0.42**) and manganese(r= -0.324*) whereas non-significantly with available copper (r= -0.132) content. Soil organic carbon showed significant and positive correlation with all the micronutrients except copper content. Non-significant and negative correlation was found between electrical conductivity and available micronutrients. Clay content correlated significantly and negatively with available Mn (r= -0.172*) and positively with available Zn (r=0.535**). Significant and negative correlation showed between available P with available Zn and Fe.

“…The positive correlation between available zinc and clay content indicates that available zinc status increases with increasing fineness of the soil texture, which helpful to improve soil structure and aeration which are favorable conditions for increasing its availability, similar observation was made by Kumar et al, (2011) and Meena et al, (2017).…”

The present study was undertaken to assess the vertical distribution of DTPA-extractable micronutrients viz. zinc, copper, iron and manganese in relation to soil properties in five selected soil profiles, one each from Sainthia, Suri II, Rampurhat II, Md Bazar and Nalhati I block of Birbhum district of West Bengal. Collected soil samples were analysed for pH, electrical conductivity, organic carbon, textural class (% sand, silt, clay) and DTPA-extractable micronutrients using standard analytical methods. The soil texture varied from silt loam to silt. Based on the fertility ratings, pH of the profile soils was strongly acidic to neutral, showing increasing trend with depth. Its value ranged from 5.012-7.121. Electrical conductivity was found in normal range. Low to medium organic carbon content was found and its distribution was found decreasing with increasing depth. Iron, manganese and copper were estimated to occur above critical level, whereas low to medium available zinc was found. The available zinc, iron, manganese and copper contents in soils ranged from 0.264-1.618 mg/kg, 5.158-51.820 mg/kg, 1.788-20.720 mg/ kg and 0.324-3.364 mg/kg respectively. In general, all the micronutrients show decreasing trend with increase in depth. The pH of the collected soil samples showed significant and negative correlation with available iron (r=-0.603*) and manganese (r=-0.524*) whereas pH correlated nonsignificantly and negatively with available zinc (r=-0.343) and copper (r=-0.484). Soil organic carbon showed significant and positive correlation with all the micronutrients. Non-significant and negative correlation was found between electrical conductivity and available micronutrients except available iron which showed significant and negative correlation with electrical conductivity (r=-0.560*).
