Author(s): T Dakshayani, GV Lakshmi, G Ramachandra Rao and A Vijaya Gopal
Abstract: Physico-chemical and chemical properties of soils collected at 250 to >1000 m from the dairy industry were studied before sowing and after harvest of the crop. Soil samples were acidic and non-saline in nature. Available nitrogen, potassium, sulphur, magnesium and micronutrients were high in the soils irrigated with dairy effluent. Overall, the results indicate that dairy effluent application increased the nutrient content in the soils when irrigated and also can reduce adverse effects on environment.
