The land resource inventory of Chilkamuki 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 659 ha in Koppal taluk and district,
Karnataka. The climate is semiarid and categorized as drought - prone with an average
annual rainfall of 662 mm, of which about 424 mm is received during south –west
monsoon, 161 mm during north-east and the remaining 77 mm during the rest of the year.
An area of 99 per cent is covered by soils and one per cent is by water bodies. The salient
findings from the land resource inventory are summarized briefly below.
 The soils belong to 17 soil series and 35 soil phases (management units) and 8 land
use classes.
 The length of crop growing period is 150 cm).
 About 14 per cent area has sandy soils, 48 per cent area has loamy soils and 24 per
cent area has clay soils.
 About 34 per cent area has non-gravelly (9.0) in soil reaction.
 Entire area is non saline (0.75%) in 75
per cent area.
 About 19 per cent area is medium (23-57 kg/ha) and 67 per cent area is high (>57
kg/ha) in available phosphorus.
 About 33 per cent area is low (337 kg/ha) in available potassium.
 About 40 per cent area is low (20 ppm) in available sulphur.
 Available boron is low (
