Abstract

With the increase in research on the various types of soils and their influence on the properties of soil such as physical, chemical and biological properties, it is necessary to understand the effect of inorganic material present in soil on the dielectric properties of soil at microwave frequencies. With this objective, soil samples were collected from different locations of Surajpur district, Chhattisgarh. Detailed studies on the chemical properties of soil are still under investigations. Hence, we have investigated the properties of soil particularly dielectric properties of soil collected from different locations at microwave frequencies. The analyzed data explained the sensitivity of different types of soil which contributed in understanding the texture of soil. Also, determination of dielectric properties aids in understanding different chemical and physical properties of soils. The results revealed that there was significant variation in the properties of soils including physical and chemical depending on the location from where the soil was collected. These results were in agreement with the literature reported earlier. This paper would be beneficial to the researchers who are involved in agricultural research, development and innovation.
