Abstract: A Study was undertaken to evaluate the fertility status of Palari block, Baloda Bazar district, Chhattisgarh covering 18 villages during 2016-2017. The systematic collection of samples was carried out in geo–referenced surface (0-0.15m) soils samples from 970 sites representing Inceptisols, Alfisols and Vertisols using Global Positioning System and mapped on 1:4000 Scale. The soil samples were analysed for Fe, Cu, Mn, B and Zn for delineation of the fertility status in relation to salient physico-chemical characteristics.The available micronutrient Fe, Cu, Mn, B and Zn contents were ranged from 6.14 to 45.52, 0.2-5.06, 2.54-41.72, 0.70-3.40 and 0.20-2.94 mg kg-1 respectively in soils of the Palari block. The 45.56% soil samples were deficient in available Zn whereas only 0.10% samples were deficient for available Mn. Fe, Cu and B deficiency was not observed in the soils.
