Abstract— The effects of civilization in development of industrial production and urbanization has led to results in evolving out of the new technologies and also helps in development of agriculture to meet the requisite of people. Mainly agriculture depends on the different source of water, hence composition of source water influence on the soil properties Three samples are collected from the agricultural land irrigated with different source of water (sewage water, canal water, Bore well water) from different location of Davanagere city, samples were investigated for physicochemical properties of soil and heavy metal concentration. From this study sewage soil having more nutrient value compare to other two samples because rich in organic carbon. Sewage soil having higher phosphorous (53 kg/ ha), nitrogen (190kg/ ha) heavy metals concentration are within the limit. The present study reveals that comparative analysis of physico-chemical parameters of soil irrigated with different source of water. Soil samples are collected from three different irrigated land are Budhihal, Shirama gondanahalli, Vidyanagar located near to Davangere for a period of 5 months which is from December 2015 to April 2016.The main objective of this study is to determine physico-chemical parameter of soil using statistical analysis, correlation analysis and also estimate the pollution index of the soil. Key words: Physico-Chemical Parameters, Heavy Metals, Different Sources of Water for Irrigation, Sampling Tool, Correlation. Statistical Analysis, Pollution Index of Soil I. INTRODUCTION Soil is unconsolidated material on the surface of the earth .It is very important for the growth of plants. It is a mixture of air, water, organic material and microorganism. It is considered as the skin of the earth. They mainly consists of organic and inorganic matter mixed together by natural process and also it is formed by disintegration of rock minerals. Soil contain an air, water it is best component for the living organism like plants, bacteria, and small animals to survive, so it is considered as the biotic component. Soil plays many roles in environment like media for growth atmospheric modification, good absorber, living filter and also good media for engineers, it’s varies from one region to another region. Soil is a dynamic component because, it ages, changing its character from original material. II. OBJECTIVES The study of soil quality and its parameters for different source of water used for irrigation are considered for this study. From this we can predict the physico-chemical characteristics and fertility value of soil in Davanagere city. The sewage water flowing outskirts of the city which is helpful for plants, as it mainly contain parameter like Nitrogen, organic carbon, phosphorous, so the study of soil
parameter is more important, and also dependency of the parameter can be calculated by correlation and statistical analysis by this we can get which parameter is more related to each other. 1) Comparative study of physico-chemical properties of different farming soil 2) Identification of heavy metal concentration of soils 3) Application of statistical analysis on physic-chemical properties of soil 4) Determination of soil pollution index. III. CORRELATION ANALYSIS Correlation is also called as co -variation, it gives the mutual relationship between soil quality parameter if one parameter changes that affect the changes in other parameter. The inter-relationship between two parameter can be given by the statistical analysis. Correlation coefficient varies from-1 to 0 +1. When correlation is zero there is no association between the parameter. The correlation value needs a magnitude and direction of either positive or negative. When the first parameter increases which would corresponds to a second parameter. This indicates the direct relationship between the parameters. From the correlation analysis we can get the dynamic distribution of the soil parameter, in the ordered manner with the detailed analysis point of view. Excel work sheets are used for this correlation. The benefits of this study: 1) From this above study we can utilize the discharged waste water for different cultivation process. 2) The heavy metals concentration in the soil samples are determined. 3) Based on the different physico chemical parameters the crops selection process is carried out.

MATERIALS AND METHODOLOGY In the present study investigation of composite sampling is done .A composite sampling is nothing but blend of seize trials poised at the equal sampling point at diverse points of different frequency. At three different places the soil samples are collected by using soil sampling tools, and the samples
