Abstract
Chemical and physical analyses are reported of 24 soils representing 3 soil types, classified on the basis of vegetation as custard apple, elderberry and saw grass soils. The custard apple soils have a higher natural fertility than the saw grass soils but the latter are rendered productive by the use of copper and manganese salts. The low fertility of the latter is not due to absence of N, P or K.Keywords
