Generally laterite soils are very poor in available nutrients and low in cation exchange capacity. In another paper the physical and chemical properties of the Nilgiri soils have been discussed in detail and the soils classified and assigned their proper place among esta- blished soil groups. In this paper features regarding the cation exchange capacity and plant nutrient content of the soils of Nilgiris are discussed and an attempt was made to classify them based upon elevation and certain salient features of the soils to bring out clearly the differences in their agronomic use and capability.
