Forms of potassium in coffee soils of Chikmagalur district in relation to soil properties
Sixty soil samples (0-22 cms depth) in Chikmagalur district under coffee cultivation were studied for different forms of potassium and other related characteristics. The results reveal that the available form of potassium is positively and significantly correlated with water soluble, exchangeable and total potassium. Among the soil characters studies, all the forms of potassium, correlated positively and significantly with clay + silt content where as negative correlation was observed with sand content.
