An experiment was carried out at College of Agriculture, Latur, M. S. India during Summer and Kharif season of 2014-15 to study the nutrient status of leaf of sweet orange orchards of Jalna district. In order to know the leaf nutrient status, ten sweet orange orchards located in ten different talukas of Jalna district were randomly selected. Leaf samples were collected from second, third or fourth leaf of four to six month old non fruiting branches during July-August 2014. Leaf samples were collected from second, third or fourth leaf from non fruiting branches of randomly selected five trees from each orchard. The leaf analysis revealed that leaf nutrient values for N, K. Ca, Mg, Zn and Cu were optimum in 10, 90, 60, 40, 70, 10 and 30 percent orchards respectively. While N, P and Zn found deficient in 90, 100 and 90 percent orchards respectively. The fruit yield had significant and positive correlation with leaf N, Ca and Mn.
