The present investigation was carried out for evaluation of the status of DTPA-Fe, Mn, Cu and Zn in relation with physico-chemical properties in soils of Wardha district. Total 75 surface soil samples were collected and analysed for soil properties and fertility status of study area. The results revealed that the soils are neutral to strongly alkaline in soil reaction, safe in electrical conductivity, low to high in organic carbon content and high cation exchange capacity.Soils were sufficient in DTPA-extractable micronutrient cations except zinc which was found deficient in nearly 44 per cent of the samples. Pearson correlation co-efficients indicated positive correlation of DTPA-extractable micronutrient cations with organic carbon and negative correlation with pH, EC and no significant relationship of DTPA-Mn, Cu, Zn was found with CEC.Keywords
Soil Fertility, DTPA-Extractable Micronutrient.

In the present study, soil-site suitability evaluation was made for the Nagalvadi micro-watershed of Wardha district for chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). Five soil series representing major land forms of Nagalvadi micro-watershed were evaluated for their suitability to chickpea cultivation using limitation method regarding number and intensity of limitations. The study suggests that chickpea is moderately suitable in soils of NG-2 and NG-5 but soils of NG-1, NG-3 and NG-4 are not suitable for chickpea cultivation. Soil depth, wetness (drainage), texture, coarse fragments, soil pH and organic carbon are the major limitations for crop growth in the most of soils of Nagalvadi micro-watershed. The suitability classes can be improved if the correctable limitations (soil fertility characteristics) are altered through application of farm yard manure, green manuring and inclusion of legumes rotation.Keywords
