The clay fraction of the soil is a mixture of one or other of these principal secondary clay minerals and the physical and chemical character of the soil and to a large degree the soil behaviour are determined by the nature and content of these clay minerals and their electrochemical properties. [...] A knowledge of the nature of the clay mineral not only in the surface soil but also throughout the profile is however essential for gaining complete information on the development and genesis of the soil. [...] This generally supports the conclusion arrived at from the chemical composition of the H-clays that illite is present predominantly in the upper horizon of the profile while montmorillonite is the dominant clay mineral in the lower horizon. [...] The gradual change in the nature of the curve during loss of lattice water of the clay from the first horizon indicates presence of some montmorillonite in it. [...] In M1 treatment the setts were placed at the bottom of the furrow after mixing the manure with the help of a single tined cultivator.
