Abstract: In order to study the micro nutrient status of maize growing soils of Tehsil Handwara, twenty composite soil surface samples (0 - 25 cm) were collected from the area. The soil samples were studied for various physico-chemical properties and available nutrient contents. The soils are neutral in pH, normal electrical conductivity and were non-calcareous. The soils were high in organic carbon content. The micro-nutrient cations viz.; zinc, copper, iron and manganese were in sufficient range in these soils. A significantly negative correlation was obtained between pH and, zinc, copper, manganese, iron, and also between calcium carbonate.
