The Department of Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry is well-equipped to conduct routine analyses of soil, plant, water and manures. The laboratory houses essential analytical instruments such as spectrophotometers, flame photometers, and distillation units, which facilitate accurate estimation of various physicochemical properties. In addition, equipments like muffle furnace, water bath, hot plate, shaker, and distilled water unit are well maintained to support the smooth conduct of undergraduate practical sessions.
The laboratory environment ensures that students gain hands-on experience in analytical techniques relevant to soil and plant nutrient studies. A well-curated collection of rock and mineral specimens is also available, serving as valuable teaching aids for practical learning and mineral identification. The laboratories are spacious, well-ventilated, and neatly furnished, providing a comfortable and efficient workspace for students.
With adequate seating and working arrangements, the facility can accommodate up to 45 undergraduate students at a time. Overall, the laboratory infrastructure is designed to promote experiential learning, scientific curiosity, and technical skill development among students pursuing agricultural sciences.
