Abstract: The study area comprises of Sri Ganganagar and Hanumangarh district of Rajasthan is located between 28.4o to30.3o Northern latitude and 72.3o to 75.3o Est. longitude at an altitude of 75.6 m above mean sea level.This area falls under irrigated north western plain zone of Rajasthan in India. The total geographical area of the zone is 2.63 million hactares. the soil of this zone are sandy, loamy and sandy loam. the soil are deficient in nitrogen and having very low organic matter. The phosphorous content of these soil varied from low to medium in range and potassium content is medium to high. some areas have salt affected soils due to secondary soil salinization as a result of water logging. These soil have high value of pH and EC . The soil irrigated by the underground water with EC higher than 8 dSm-1are saline and ultimately reduced the germination of crops and plant growth.
