Abstract:

To study the DTPA extractable micronutrient status of soil from mango orchards of YSR Kadapa district in all 240 surface and 66 profile samples were collected. The status of DTPA extractable (Fe, Mn, Zn and Cu) micronutrients found to be adequate in most of the mango orchards selected for the present investigation. However, few of the samples were found to be deficient in available Fe and Zn content. The correlation study of soil properties with available micronutrients showed that availability of micronutrients in soil get influenced by mechanical composition, maximum water holding capacity, pH, EC, organic carbon, available nitrogen, available phosphorous, available potassium and exchangeable calcium. It was concluded that balanced fertilizer application through integrated nutrient management can sustain fertility status especially in relation to zinc (Zn) and Iron (Fe).
