An experiment was conducted at College of Agriculture, Latur (M.S.), during summer and kharif season of 2014-15 to study the nutrient status of soils of sweet orange orchards of Jalna District. In order to know the soil nutrient status, ten sweet orange orchards located in ten different talukas of Jalna district were randomly selected. Soil samples were collected in May 2014 at a depth of 0-30cm, 30-60 cm and 60-90cm. All the samples were in safe limit for electrical conductivity (EC). All soil samples were low to medium in organic carbon content (OC), nitrogen content (N), available phosphorus (P), sulphur contents (S) and manganese content (Mn). All soil samples were high in calcium content (Ca), available magnesium content (Mg). The soil were sufficient in available copper content (Cu). Results also showed that there was positive significant correlation of OC, N, P, K, Mg and Cu with fruit quality parameters.
