Land subsidence accelerated by underground coal extraction has great effect on soil quality. Although many studies have been done with respect to land subsidence effect on different properties of soil still studies on nutrient distribution of soil in subsided land are very few. This paper focuses on effect of land subsidence on distribution of soil micronutrients in a coal mining area. For this study six sites like unaffected sites, crack-1 site, slope-1 site, maximum subsidence site, crack -2 site and slope-2 site were chosen. The variation in content of soil micronutrients like iron(Fe), manganese(Mn),copper(Cu), zinc(Zn) were studied in the six sites. | Effect of land subsidence on distribution of soil miconutrients in a coal mining area
