Abstract

Soil test based fertilization has now been recognized as an effective technology for achieving better use efficiency of fertilizer and also for sustaining the productivity of agricultural soils. There are numerous techniques to stabilize such soils. The techniques of reinforcing soil is a recently developed one. The objective of the present investigation is to analyze the behavior of the reinforced foundation through an extensive experimental program. In the present study the physicochemical parameters such as PH, Nitrate, Nitrite, Sulphate, Phosphate, Cacium, Magnesium, Chloride, Fluoride, Silica and Ammonia were carried out.

Keywords: Atomic Absorption spectroscopy, Ammonia, Calcium, Chloride, Copper, Ferrous, Fluoride, Magnesium, Nitrate, Nitrite, PH, Phosphate, Sulphate, Silica, Zinc.
