Abstract

The present study aims to determine the concentrations of potassium (K), sodium (Na), and soil pH in samples collected from the Vaijapur tehsil region. Fertilizer-derived elements leached from the deposits have accumulated in the soil, contributing to soil pollution. The focus of this research is to compare the nutrient content of barren soil and Cotton field soil in the Vaijapur tehsil area using flame photometry analysis.
