Understanding the physical quality of soil that influences
its hydraulic behaviour helps in formulating
appropriate water management strategies for sustainable
crop production. Saturated hydraulic conductivity
(Ks) is a key factor governing the hydraulic properties of
soils. Ks can be estimated through various techniques. In
the present article we have developed and validated the
regression models to predict Ks of the soils of the Indo-
Gangetic Plains (IGP) and the black soil regions (BSR)
under different bioclimatic systems. While particle size
distribution was found to be a key factor to predict Ks
of the BSR soils, organic carbon was found useful for
the IGP soils. Moreover, the models for Ks of both
soils were strengthened by putting in CaCO3 and
exchangeable sodium percentage content. It seems
there is ample scope to study the interaction process
for revising Ks to desired levels through management
practices in these two important food-growing zones.
An index of soil physical quality, derived from the
inflection points of the soil moisture characteristic
curves could well explain the impact of management
practices on soil physical quality.
