Effects of Hydrogel on Physical and Chemical Properties of Soil

This experiment was performed at the Rajiv Gandhi South Campus, Barkachha (BHU) Mirzapur, as a pot culture study, from November 2018 to March 2019–20. is completely randomised design, taking three replications with six treatments, i.e., T1: Control, T2: 5 g kg-1 Hydrogel, T3: 10 T4: 15 T5: 20 and T6: 25 Hydrogel. The soil incubated different doses of hydrogel for 120 days. samples were collected after incubation, processed in laboratory, analysed physical chemical properties soil. results demonstrated that use had significant impact on various properties, particularly water holding capacity bulk density Other significantly influenced particle density, porosity, electrical conductivity, available nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, sulfur. However, application did not influence pH or organic carbon content rate kg1 showed highest values N, P, K, S well capacity. In some treatment containing found be statistically equivalent hydrogel.
