The Soil & Land Use Survey of India (SLUSI) is generating of district/village-wise digital soil fertility maps through geo-spatial techniques using Soil Health Card (SHC) data.
The Soil fertility maps provide a detailed spatial information about the nutrient composition and health of the soil.
It helps the farmers in application of fertilizers and soil amendments judiciously, reducing the risk of overuse or underuse.
Geospatial techniques, including remote sensing & AI based tools, are used in soil fertility mapping.
The Soil Health Cards are generated under Soil Health & Fertility Scheme of Government of India.
