Soil fertility evaluation of an area is an important aspect in context of sustainable agriculture production. The macro nutrients govern the fertility of soils and control the growth and yields of crops. In the present investigation Narayanpur block was selected in the district Mirzapur of Uttar Pradesh and studied the available macronutrient status and their relationship with physico-chemical properties. Mirzapur district have different cropping systems and irrigated by Ganga canal and Tube well tributaries. Seven representative villages were chosen and 10 surface soil (0-15 cm) samples collected from each village and analyzed for physico-chemical properties and available N, P, K, and S status using standard laboratory procedures. Results of the study indicated that soils of Narayanpur block were Medium to High in organic carbon. Out of 75 collected soil samples, 96% were Low in available nitrogen and medium to high in available phosphorus, potassium and Sulphur Medium to high in soil.
