Physio-chemical analysis of samples of soil selected from different agriculture areas from al-Najaf

الملخص EN

The twelve samples of agricultural soils from four regions in Al-Najaf governorate with sampling plant with soil.

Physical properties of the soil where studied, such as electrical conductivity ranged from (136.33-1070.00)μS/cm-3, and moisture which ranged between the values (0.39-36.48)% .

The chemical analysis of the soil have included the proportion of calcium carbonate the ratio between (44.00-48.00% ) has been observed increasing amounts of calcium carbonate in surface models.

The pH where results indicate that pH values were close to study models ranged between (6.88-7.42) these values generally within the normal range for the measured pH values of the Iraqi soil.

The amount of gypsum ranged between the (1.36-4.32meq/100g) proportion of organic matter in the soils studied models was high compared with the percentage of which is supposed to good soils for plant growth and the extent of the proportion of organic matter between (3.31-30.22% ).

As well as the estimation of heavy metals in the soil, samples were arranging as follows: (Fe> Cr>Mn> Zn>Pb> Cu> Cd).

As arranged in the plant as follows: Fe>Mn>Pb> Zn> Cr> Cu> Cd.
