The study looked at different forms of potassium in soils from Sahibganj District, Jharkhand. They found that the soils had a good amount of available potassium, with most of it being in non-exchangeable and lattice forms. Soils in flood plains had more potassium than those in foothills. The amount of water soluble potassium decreased with depth in the soil. There were strong positive relationships between different forms of potassium in the soil. Overall, the study showed that the soils in the area have a good amount of potassium available for plants to use.
