A survey work on quality of red soils along the water course of SBC carried out during 2014-15 which indicated that soil quality parameters such as WSA, MWHC AW, SEI, BD, total soil porosity, pH, SOC, CEC, MBC and DHA were comparatively better in tail reach soils than in head and middle reach soils as the amount of water discharged at soils of later reaches was more than that of farmer reach and in general soil quality was not deteriorated as much as excepted as the land use was paddy the bellow ground portion of paddy crop is being incorporated into the soil year after the year added organic matter to the soil and in addition to this coarser soil texture did not encourage accumulation of salt in soils and thus, the significant correlation of soil quality parameter with both particle size classes and SOC was evident of it.Keywords
Bulk Density, Available Water, Water Stable Aggregates, Soil Erosion Index, SOC, CEC, Microbial Biomass Carbon, Dehydrogenase Activity.

The survey work was carried out during the year 2014-15 at Shahapur branch canal of Yadgir district, Karnataka and studied the fertility status of soil along the water course of canal command area. Available nitrogen content was comparatively more in sub surface soils than in surface soils all along the water course of distributory-14. Available phosphorus status in soils at the tail reach was comparatively more than that of head reach. Irrespective of surface and sub surface soils available potassium status was medium and was comparatively low in sub surface than in surface soils. However, increasing trend of potassium from head to tail via middle reach along the water course was observed. Available sulphur status was medium in surface and low in sub surface soils all along the water course. Available nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and sulphur were strongly correlated with organic carbon (0.950, 0.989, 0.986 and 0.989), CEC (-0.841, -0.895, -0.934 and -0.946) and dehydrogenase activity (0.934, 0.979, 0.980 and 0.982). Higher concentration of DTPA extractable micronutrients namely, Fe, Cu and Zn in surface than in sub surface soils was observed all along the water course. However, fertility status of soils along the water course was low with respect to both available N and P, medium with respect to available K, S, Fe and Zn while high with respect to available Cu and Mn.Keywords

Retention and movement of water was better in conservational agricultural systems as compared to conventional agricultural system. Statistical tool Tukey test suggested that conservational agricultural systems that too raised bed with retention of crop residue at soil surface recorded statistically significant available water, water held at field capacity and permanent wilting point over that of conventional agricultural system and however, another statistical tool Pearson correlation indicated that neither tillage, crop residue retention at surface nor raised bed influenced water retention characteristics of soil such as MWHC, AW, water at FC and PWP which were significantly correlated with particle size class rather than organic carbon the resultant product of management factors. Other hydrological properties of soil such as infiltration rate, water storage capacity as well as hydraulic conductivity were better in conservational agricultural systems than in conventional agricultural system and however, infiltration rate and hydraulic conductivity were significantly superior in no tilled soil with raised bed and crop residue retained at soil surface.Keywords
