During the present investigation, soil from different villages of Jaipur district in Rajasthan was tested. Soils of two depths viz 0-15 cm and 15-30 cm were tested. Surface soil samples (0-15 cm) showed the pH ranging from 8.2 to 10.2 and sub-surface soil samples (15-30cm) showed pH ranging from 8.0 to 10.0 showing characteristic of alkali soils. The EC of 9 soil samples was less than 1 mmhos/cm. One soil sample showed EC more than 1 mmhos/cm. Organic carbon percentage was low in all the 10 soil samples. Available Phosphorus and potash ranged from medium to high in these soil samples.
