Abstract

Soil is an important natural resource on the earth. The present paper deal with the study of evaluation nutrient index by using organic carbon and to determine soil fertility status of Kurkheda tahsil of Gadchiroli district. Spatial distributions for chemical properties were examined in the soil samples of selected agriculture fields in ten different location of Kurkheda tahsil. It is observed that soil organic carbon content of soil samples was in the range of 0.54 to 0.82 and majority of the soil samples belongs to nearly high level as per the nutrient index (2.30).
