Abstract

                                The morphology and physico-chemical properties of six pedons representing two each of soils with forest, plantation crop and tree crop cover, physical properties such as bulk density and saturated hydraulic conductivity were substantially influenced by the organic matter and clay content of the profiles. Forest vegetation profiles contained more organic matter, higher CEC, lower bulk density and higher saturated hydraulic conductivity.

Key words : Pedons-Different vegetational cover - Physico-chemical properties
