Five distinct clusters were obtained. Soil Samples were also collected and
analyzed. Results of so il analyses and other environmental variables were
compared among clusters. Total nitrogen, exchangeable potassium,
percent particle fractions, altitude and slope showed significant difference
among clusters. Based on the investigation, Recommendation towards the
conservation of natural Vegetation of the area is also given .
