Abstract

A soil test plays an important role in optimizing crop production. Determining pH and fertility levels with a soil test is the first step in planning a healthy nutrient management program. soil samples are collected from cultivated land in rajupet village in Narsampet mandal, Telangana state during Kharif 2022. Major nutrients pH, N, P, KS and organic carbon are tested using a portable soil test kit developed by IOTA. From the results, it is observed that the pH ranges between 6.5 to 7.5, which is suitable for growing chillies and cotton. the amount of nitrogen ranges from less than 250 kg/ha to more than 600 kg/ha. Phosphorus (P as P2O5) ranges from 20 kg/ha to over 60 kg/ha. Most of the territory shows a very high potassium content (ie >340 kg/ha)
