Eight typical pedons from Jalgaon district were studied and evaluated for their suitability to rainfed cotton as per the criteria proposed by NBSS & LUP. Soil drainage, pH, CaCO3, high smectitic clay are the dominant parameters limiting the suitability of cotton. Due to severe limitation of drainage and pH, pedon 7 and 8 are rated as marginally suitable but suitable (S1) in respect of pH and moderately suitable (S2) owing to moderate limitation of drainage. The moderate limitation of clay content (P3 to P8) and CaCO3 (P1, P22) rated these pedons as moderately suitable (NBSS and LUP) but suitable. The criteria proposed by NBSS and LUP seems to be more robust. Not Available |
