Summary, etc Skim latex- a waste material of rubber latex processing industry - was tested for the modification of physical properties of a sandy loam soil. Treatments, at 0.05, 0.10 and 0.20 per cent concentrations, were found to enhance water stable aggregates by 6, 29 and 56 per cent, modulus of rupture by 15, 23 and 28 per cent respectively. The treatments increased the pore sizes corresponding to 30 and 60 cm H2O suction and decreased the available water content. Soil water diffusivity at the lower side of the moisture content was reduced and eavaporation from the soil surface suppressed by the treatments.
