Chemical and Mineralogical Characteristics of an Organic Soil (Troposaprist) from Sg. Burong, Tg. Karang, Selangor

At bulk density of O. 97 g/cm 3and pH (top soil) of around 5 reflects that the soil has improved after undergoing an ameliorating programme and more than a decade of cultivation. But at depth, pH is still low where Al is present in large quantities. A high water table leads to the accumulation of...
