ABSTRACT

This study aimed to delve deeper into the intricate relationship between vegetation types, soil organic matter, and fertilization practices, and their influence on the chemical and biological composition of soil. By analyzing three distinct sample sites, various factors such as bulk density, nitrogen concentration, pH value, porosity, phosphorus concentration, and organic matter content were examined. The results of this study unveiled noteworthy disparities in soil moisture, organic matter content, and Olson-P concentration among the three sampling locations. These variations could potentially be attributed to contrasting water availability and nutrient application practices across the sites. Furthermore, the impact of fertilization on phosphorus concentration in the soil was found to be significant. This finding underscores the vital role of fertilization practices in shaping the phosphorus levels within the soil ecosystem. Ultimately, this investigation sheds light on the fundamental significance of soil chemistry and biological composition under diverse vegetation types and fertilization conditions. By comprehending how these factors interact and influence one another, we can better understand and manage soil health and fertility for sustainable agricultural practices and environmental stewardship.
