Abstract

Soil is the uppermost layer of the surface of the earth and is mainly a combination of organic materials, mineral particles, water, air, and different types of living microorganisms. It assists in the growth of plants by providing them with varied nutrients and water. Physicochemical parameters of soil are an indication of its fertility. They provide information about soil’s nutrient content and help in describing the characteristics of the soil. The various physicochemical parameters include micronutrients available, PH, bulk density, moisture content, etc. This review provides an insight into the three physicochemical properties of soil is PH, moisture content, and bulk density which affect the soil composition and quality of soil.
