This study titled “Comprehensive Chemical Analysis and Assessment of Macro and Micronutrient Status of Agricultural Soil in Vadgaon Nimbalkar, Baramati Tehsil, Maharashtra “evaluates ten soil samples collected from different agricultural fields. The analysis focused on soil pH, electrical conductivity (EC), organic carbon, calcium carbonate, macronutrients (N, P, K), and micronutrients (Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu). Results show that the soils are strongly alkaline (pH 8.39–8.81) and non-saline (EC 0.24–0.85 dS/m). Organic carbon remains low to medium (0.35–1.38%), indicating limited organic matter. Nitrogen is low to medium, phosphorus is consistently very low, while potassium shows wide variation from low to very high. Calcium carbonate content is moderately high (7.4–12.8%), typical of black cotton soils. Micronutrient analysis reveals deficiencies of iron and zinc, while manganese and copper remain within acceptable limits. Overall, the soils of Vadgaon Nimbalkar are affected by high alkalinity, low organic matter, and deficiencies of N, P, Fe, and Zn. The study suggests the need for balanced fertilization, organic amendments, and micronutrient supplementation to improve soil fertility and support sustainable agriculture in the region.
