Soils of Irugur, Palladam, Syamalakavundanpudur and Vanna- patti series showed high infiltration rate and poor aggregate stability. Soils of Peelamedu, Perianaickenpalayam, Pichanur and Tulukkanur series showed high sub-soil bulk density affecting proliferation of roots of crops. Dispersed soils with high alkalinity occurred in Peelamedu series. The soils of Vannapatty. Syamalakavundanpudur and Peelamedu series were low in organic matter content.
