Question

what is the different level of pH in himachal pradesh​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Lower Shivalik hills are the part of Himalayas extending in the areas of lower Himachal Pradesh. These hills

cover an area of about 55,673 sq. km with four districts of Himachal Pradesh. Forty soil samples were

collected both from hilly and plain soils covering about 14,799 km. The chemical characteristics such as pH,

organic matter, potassium and zinc, copper, iron and manganese were analysed. The soil in the hill regions

shows greater pH changes than in plains. Micronutrients and organic carbon contents were higher in plains

thus the soil was more appropriate for cash crops.
