An incubation experiment was conducted to study the effect of raw and composted bananapseudostem and sugarcane trash waste on soil properties. Two hundred and fifty gram of soil was taken in polythene containers, to which calculated quantity of raw and composted waste materials along with 100 per cent RDF and 75 per cent RDF (as recommended for amaranthus), respectively were added as per the treatment schedule and mixed thoroughly. The moisture content was maintained at field capacity throughout the experimental period (60 days). The soil samples were drawn at 15, 30, 45 and 60 days of incubation and analyzed for their organic carbon content and cation exchange capacity. With the advancement of incubation period, there was an increase in organic carbon content and cation exchange capacity of soil upto the end of incubation period.Keywords
