Abstract: A study was undertaken to evaluate the nature of soil reaction and status of EC, OC and macro nutrients in Ujjain tehsil of Madhya Pradesh. The GPS based 150 soil samples were collected from 0-15 cm depth by random sampling method. The soil analysis showed that the pH, electrical conductivity and organic carbon status ranged between 7.01-8.15, 0.10-0.79 dSm-1 and 0.30-0.60% with mean value of 7.61, 0.28 dSm-1, and 0.48% respectively. These soils are characterized under neutral to alkaline in soil reaction and less than 1 dSm-1 soluble salt content (EC) which comes under safe limit for all soils. The available nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and sulphur status ranges between 139-235, 8.00-25.60, 301-463 and 8.06-24.36 kg ha-1 respectively with mean value of 198.27, 15.8, 358.85 and 16.27 kg ha-1 respectively. It could be concluded that these soil data can be effectively utilize with proper nutrient management and regular monitoring to avoid any nutrients stress on crop.
