Abstract: A survey of chemical properties of soil of ‘Robertsganj’ block in ‘Sonbhadra’ district in subtropical area of Uttar Pradesh was carried out in 2017-18. The main objective of this study is to collect information on soil pH, electrical conductivity, organic carbon, N, P, and K. For this 20 sampling points were selected from different location. Soil samples collected at a depth of 0-15 cm. with the help of this study we found the value of pH in varied from 4.02 to 7.95. It is acidic to alkaline in nature. The EC value is varied from 0.393 to 4.009 dS m-1 and it is normal to highly salinity soil. The value of OC% found is varied from 0.13% to 0.78% and this is very low to medium high level. The value of available nitrogen (kg ha-1) found is varied from 172.89 kg ha-1 to 468.39 kg ha-1 and this is low to medium level. The value of available phosphorus (P2O5 in kg ha-1) found is varied from 85.2 kg ha-1 to 1.29 kg ha-1 and this is high level to low level. The value of available potassium (K2O in kg ha-1) found is varied from 53.76 kg ha-1 to 282.24 kg ha-1 and this is low level to high level.
