“…The results might be attributed to the temperate environmental conditions resulting in low mineralization of organic matter, thus lower release of available sulphur. The results are in conformity with the findings of Sharma and Bhandari [29]. (Table 2).…”

“…This may be due to sufficient organic matter and low pH of surface soils. The results are in accordance with the observations of Patiram [30] and Sharma [29]. A perusal of data in Table 5 indicated that all the soils under study were high in available iron content, which may be due to presence high organic matter and due formation of iron chelates.…”

A Survey was carried out to study available nutrient status of grape orchard soils Kashmir. Fifteen orchards with uniform age and vigour were selected and surveyed (simple random survey) for the purpose of collection of soil samples. The samples were processed and analyzed for different nutrients. In general the soils were medium in available nitrogen and phosphorus with mean values of 161.0 and 11.7 ppm, respectively in surface soils (0-30 cm) and mean values of 82.2 and 8.9 ppm, respectively in sub-surface soils (30-90 cm). All the soils under investigation were high in available potassium, calcium and magnesium showing average values of 133.1, 1854.3, 282.2 ppm and 112.5, 1872.1 and 254.3 ppm in surface and sub-soils, respectively. The mean available iron, manganese, zinc, copper, boron and molybdenum content of surface soils was 33.84, 35.14, 1.32, 1.62, 0.58 and 0.22 ppm, respectively and in sub-surface soils of 32.08, 33.42, 1.20, 1.39, 0.48 and 0.14 ppm, respectively. Further it was observed that majority of soils were high in available iron, manganese and zinc and medium in available copper, boron and molybdenum content.

“…This is due to luxurious vegetation because of high rainfall and slow rate of decomposition due to low temperature leading to accumulation of organic matter at high altitudes. These findings are supported by Minhas and Bora (1982) and Sharma et al, (2005). (Table 7).…”

“…The Zn levels in soil samples of this study also exceeded the 36 -113 µgZng -1 range documented by Sharma et al, [21] in their determination of total micronutrients in relation to pedogenesis in some soil samples in India. A lower ranged value of 10 -85 µg Zng -1 than obtained in this study (Table 2) has also been reported by Iyaka and Kakulu [22] in their study of roadside topsoil of the Bida city.…”

and 181± 201µPbg -1 , when compared to 5.4±1.2µgCug -1 , 12±3.2µgZng -1 and not detectable value for Pb from the control soils. Hence, this study has helped to create the public awareness with regard to the risk of the adverse health effects that could possibly arise from the environmental pollution by heavy metals, particularly with regard to Pb in soils and the consequent need for immediate remediation of the studied area.
