Soil acidity or pH is between (4.44 to 7.59) categorized as acid, very acid, alkaline and neutral. C-Organic values of soil range from high to very high (3.99% -5.05%). CEC values of soil categorized as high to very high namely 22.61 (cmol(+)kg-1) - 28.64 (cmol(+)kg-1). While soil salinity ranges from between 0.66 ppt - 2.95 ppt.
