EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The land resource inventory of Gopalagiri Colony-2 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 these
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 119 ha out of total area of 576 ha in
Gundlupet Taluk, Chamarajanagar District Karnataka. The remaining area of about 456
ha is under Forest. The climate is semiarid and categorized as drought - prone with an
average annual rainfall of 734 mm, of which about 254 mm is received during the south –
west monsoon, 268 mm during north-east and the remaining 212 mm during the rest of
the year. An area of about 21 per cent is covered by soils, 79 per cent by forests and
