Analysis and Interpretation of Somatogenic Variations of Soil

Abstract

Physico-chemical properties are very important. Physico-chemical properties are also called somatogenic properties. Physico-chemical properties plays pivotal role for progressive farmers in production of desired results. Soil is related with its properties. Specific surface, density, size analysis, heating of wet soil, viscosity, thixotropy, plasticity, soil strength, shear strength, soil puddling, colour, soil organic matter, soil colloids, soil pH, soil acidity, soil alkanities, soil enzymes, soil bacteria, soil fungi, soil texture, soil consistency, void ratio, degree of saturation, air filled porosity, total porosity, particle size distribution, soil structure management, soil compaction, soil crusting, swelling, soil tilth and tillage, soil water, total soil water potential, gravitational potential, pressure potential, matric potential, pneumatic potential, osmotic potential, water capacity, hydraulic conductivity, hydraulic fluidity, evaporation, solute transport, soil air, soil aeration, thermal properties of soil, soil rheology, micronutrients and macronutrients. The author has focused the effect of some parameters and depicted through graphs although the somatogenic deta have been tabulated properly.
