The land resource inventory of Wankasambar-3 Microwatershed was conducted
using village cadastral maps and IRS satellite imagery on 1:7920 scale. The false colour
composites of IRS imagery were interpreted for physiography and the physiographic
delineations were used as base for mapping soils. The soils were studied in several
transects and a soil map was prepared with phases of soil series as mapping units.
Random checks were made all over the area outside the transects to confirm and validate
the soil map unit boundaries. The soil map shows the geographic distribution and extent,
characteristics, classification, behavior and use potentials of the soils in the
microwatershed.
The present study covers an area of 583ha in Yadgir taluk & district, Karnataka.
The climate is semiarid and categorized as drought-prone with an average annual
rainfall of 866 mm, of which about 652 mm is received during south-west monsoon, 138
mm during north-east and the remaining 76 mm during the rest of the year. An area of
577 ha (98%) in the microwatershed is covered by soils and 150 cm) and 13 per cent soils are moderately
shallow (50-75 cm).
 About 47 per cent area in the microwatershed has loamy soils, 40 per cent
clayey soils and 13 per cent are sandy at the surface.
 Entire area of the microwatershed is non gravelly (
