ABSTRACT

The aims of this paper are analytical assessment of macro and micro analysis of soil sample. The two methods can be used qualitative and quantitative analysis for soil quality assessment. The macro elements were analyzed in laboratory are pH, N, P, S and K by physio-chemical parameters. And the micro elements such as Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn concentrations in (ppm) were estimated by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy. After analyzing the mean values were found to be 7.7 for pH showing acidic nature of the soil. The AAS results are elevated levels of Iron (Fe) while others such as Cu, Mn, Zn were within the permissible standards of WHO. The levels of heavy metals were found to decrease in the order of: Fe > Mn > Zn > Cu in soil sample collected from Bilha region of Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh. Keywords: Macronutrients, Micronutrients, Physico-chemical analysis, AAS
