Lakhanpur block of Jharsuguda district rests predominantly on crystalline and sedimentary rocks of Precambrian and Permo-carbonifeous age. In most of the part of the study area cultivation sustain on groundwater. The area is characterized by shallow to moderate deep phreatic aquifers system. The present study has been carried out to evaluate the suitability of ground water for irrigation, On the basis of various criteria like salinity, magnesium hazard, RSC etc. The majority of water samples are found suitable for irrigation.
