Abstract
The present paper demonstrates the results of the analysis of some soil samples collected from sites located in Districts Peshawar and Laki Marwat. Micronutrients were analyzed using diethylene triamine penta acetic acid (DTPA) method. It is evident from the data that all the samples were enriched with micronutrients like Fe, K, Na, and Mn. Some of the samples i.e. ones collected from Abakhel contain lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) which are not desirable due to fatal effects on human health if assimilated through food chain. All the samples under study were free of lithium (Li).
