Abstract:
This study investigates the effects of soil acidity in different Physicochemical properties of the
soil, Soil samples from Acid and neutral soils of the three kebeles of Damboya, Woreda,
Southern Ethiopia, Physicochemical properties, for example soil texture, soil electrical
Conductivity (EC), Soil organic carbon, total nitrogen, available phosphorus, Potassium and soil
cat ion exchange capacity (CEC) were analyzed. In this research, the soil sample and grains of
wheat from the study area will be analyzed to determine the macro (NPK) and micro
nutrients(Zn, Cu, Fe and Mn) and their relationship with the pH of soil, EC, CEC, OC and soil
texture. It was found that there are Higher mean values of available P, potassium and most
physicochemical parameters sampled from neutral soil of the kebeles. This knowledge will help
to the people who are producing wheat crop in these areas to take pertinent soil management
option for better production.
