研究了马哈拉施特拉邦Ahmednagar县Sangamner地区土壤矿物学和质地特征与土壤肥力状况的关系。为此，从该地区收集的62个表层土壤样品中确定了粒度分布。对具有代表性的10个粘土组分进行了x射线衍射分析，进行了矿物学表征。由于土壤中K<亚>2O含量高，伊利石在粘土中占主导地位。盐渍土中蒙脱土的镁含量占优势。高岭石、绿泥石、高岭石也被检出。质构分析表明，粘土含量在9.51% ~ 53.61%之间。在下游发现了粘土和粘壤土类型的土壤，这可能是由于该地区普遍存在的排水条件不充分所致。粉砂含量比例次之，砂和粗砂含量比例次之。土壤的质地分类为粘土占35.48%，粘土壤土占22.58%，砂质粘土占21%，砂质粘土占16%，砂质粘土占5%。 This indicates that majority of the samples have clay and clay loam category. The present investigation suggested that adequate drainage and leaching, crop rotation, blending of saline water with good quality of water, use of manures and mulching and desiltation of Ojhar weir can be adapted as measures to improve soil fertility of the area. Farmer’s participation has been looked as the best means of avoiding further degradation of soils in the area.
