Abstract
The present investigation was carried out in a rural area, Nathusari Chopta of Sirsa district, in the pre-monsoon season of 2016. Soil samples were collected from some selected villages to assess the soil quality. Total fifteen soil samples were collected from the surface with a 15-20 cm depth and analyzed. There is not much variation in the soil fertility status in different villages under investigation. The soils are having normal pH (7.48 – 7.84), safe EC (0.42 – 0.63 dS/m), low to moderate OC (0.43 – 0.96 % by mass). Further, minerals like P, Ca, and K (NIV = 3) are highly present. The analysis showed that the soils were suitable for cultivation. Keywords – nutrient index, rural area, soil fertility, cultivation
