Abstract

The GPS and GIS techniques, i.e. (Global Position System and Geographical Information System) are widely utilized for delineating fertility maps of macro and micronutrients. The study entitled GPS-GIS based soil fertility maps of Akole tahsil of Ahmednagar District (M.S) was conducted during the year 2013-2014 and 2014-2015 at Department Soil Science and Agriculture Chemistry, Post Graduate Institute MPKV, Rahuri to study the chemical properties of soils of Akole tahsil by using Global Positioning System (GPS).
