“…A significant positive correlation was observed between CEC and clay (r = 0.60), CEC and OC (r = 0.69) whereas negative correlation was observed between CEC with sand (r = -0.66) which suggest that colloidal fractions were key factors that influenced CEC. Bhat et al (2017) also reported positive relationship between colloidal fractions and CEC of the soils of Gohana Haryana. Broadly the physiography and land use considerably influenced the value of total exchangeable bases.…”

“…Satish et al (2018) adduced that the downward movement of calcium and its subsequent precipitation as carbonate and/ or decomposition of calcium carbonate is responsible for higher CaCO at lower depths. Negative correlation was 3 observed between CaCO and P (r = -0.12) which can be due 3 to fixation of P as calcium phosphate and CaCO and pH (r = 3 0.13) because higher pH causes the saturation of calcium carbonate (Bhat et al 2017).…”

Nine pedons representing the typical landforms of micro-watersheds in Chhachhrauli block of Yamunanagar, Haryana were exposed to determine the interrelationships and variability of soil characteristics. The colour of pedons was yellowish brown with dominant hue of 10YR. Soil structure was weak to strong, fine to medium, sub angular blocky across the pedons. The consistency of different pedons varied from non-sticky non-plastic to sticky plastic and soil texture varied from sand to loam with predominance of sand than clay in all the pedons. Bulk density, particle density and available water content across all the pedons varied from 1.01 to 1.75 Mg m , 2.50 to 2.65 Mg m and 1.01 to −3 −3 16.38%, respectively. The pH ranged from 4.20 to 8.30 across all the profiles indicating acidic to alkaline nature of the soils. The soils were low to high in soil organic carbon (SOC). In all soils, SOC varied from 0.06 to 2.54 per cent and was higher in surface horizons than subsurface horizons. The CaCO content in pedons 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6 was <1% suggesting nearly complete decalcification in these soils. The exchangeable 3 complex of the soils was dominated by Ca followed by Mg, Na and K. Broadly the physiography and land use considerably influenced the value of total exchangeable bases. Relatively higher content of nutrients was observed in the surface horizons compared to subsurface horizons. The results demonstrated that, in general, varying SOC concentrations are associated with varying slope positions of the pedons, highlighting the significance of landform location in regulating soil water content as well as the SOC concentration. The geomorphic location of each pedon across the watersheds has influenced strongly the movement of solutes and therefore soil development. The soils of the study area were classified as sandy, mixed, hyperthermic, typic Ustipsamments (Pedon 1), fine loamy Ustochrepts (Pedon 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9) and coarse loamy Ustorthents (Pedon 4).

“…After canal system development, continuous groundwater exploitation increased due to the planting of heavy irrigation duty crops (Kumar et al, 2007). Thus, poor water management practices have led to the situation of waterlogging, salinization, and the accumulation of salts on the soil surface due to the 'cup-shaped' topography of Haryana, which makes it more likely to be affected by salinity (Bhat et al, 2017). Salinity is the most common soil problem in arid and semi-arid conditions, it causes the exhibition of negative effects concerning soil physicochemical (Kumawat et al, 2011) and biological properties which can seriously diminish soil health (Singh et al, 2018a).…”
