| Abstract/Description: | The research aimed to determine the role of land use and canopy position in improving soil organic carbon pools, physico-chemical and biological parameters. The study was conducted in a light-textured hyperthermic Udic Ustochrept soil of lower Shivalik, Himalayan region of India, under different canopy positions of Terminalia chebula, Embilica officinalis, Mangifera indica and Psidium guvajava. The highest soil organic carbon content near tree trunk was observed in Terminalia chebula (0.71%) and the lowest in Emblica officinalis (0.51%). Near tree trunk, very labile C was higher in Mangifera indica (0.39%) and lower in Emblica officinalis (0.25%). Zinc and iron showed significant variations with respect to land use. Bulk density varied from 1.32 to 1.45 g cm-3. Pore space was 44.5% in surface soil of Mangifera indica, and 40% at 30-45 cm depth in Terminalia chebula. |
