摘要:In the present study the effect of sewage water and canal water irrigation were compared bytheir physicochemical properties and heavy metals concentration in soil. The mean values ofdifferent physico-chemical parameters and heavy metals were : Bulk density (gm/cm3) 1.26,Water holding capacity(%)-53.60, Temperature(ºC)-16.33, Electrical conductivity (dsm-1)-0.122, pH-7.5, Organic carbon (%)-1.95, Available phosphorous(mg/kg)-108.44, Availablepotassium (mg/kg)-121.66, Nitrogen(%)-2.22, Available Calcium (%)-2.18, AvailableMagnesium (%)-0.09 and heavy metal concentration in soil were Pb-52.72, Cu-49.03, Zn-264.09and Cd-24.66 in sewage water irrigated soil. The observed concentration of Pb, Cu, Zn wasbelow the Indian standards except Cd. The Enrichment factors calculated for sewage waterirrigated soil in Pb (3.79), Zn (4.12), Cu (3.12) and Cd (2.21) were moderate enrichment whilepollution index values in the samples were calculated to be lower than permissible pollution limitof 1.0.
