Table 2 The impact of land use change on pH and bulk density.

From: Dynamics of soil organic carbon of jhum agriculture land-use system in the heterogeneous hill of Arunachal Pradesh, India

Land use system	pH			BD (Mgm^–3)
Land use system	0–15 cm	15–30 cm	30–45 cm	0–15 cm	15–30 cm	30–45 cm
Jhum	4.8^b	4.9^b	5.17	1.29^a	1.27^a	1.29^a
Natural forest	5.3^a	5.4^a	5.22	1.09^d	1.13^c	1.13^c
Fallow jhum	4.8^b	4.9^b	5.3	1.24^b	1.23^b	1.25^b
Pine apple	5.2^a	5.2^a	5.35	1.13^c	1.17^b	1.20^b

Means followed by different letters (a–d) are significantly different from the LSD (least significant difference) values at p = 0.05. Significant differences shown are in land uses.
