Abstract


Maihar is a tehsil of satna district in the state of Madhya Pradesh, India. It is known for the temple of the revered mother goddess Sharda situated in Trikut hill. The town is a road and rail junction. It is located at 24.27oN 80.75oE. The physico-chemical parameters (i.e. temperature, pH, EC,) N, P, K and also heavy metals (Mn, Co, Cu, Zn, Ni) has been examined in the soil sample of Maihar tehsil in Satna District. The readings were taken with the help of Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS) and the value of Zn, Cd, Cu, Ni and Co was calculated by running standards of these metals. Various soil quality parameters were analyzed by using standard procedures. Temperature, pH, EC, N, P and K were found to be within the SQGL recommended level.
