The present investigation, a field survey experiment was conducted during summer season of 2015 in Karnal district of Haryana by Department of Soil Science, Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar. The treatments consisted of six irrigation sites; in which five irrigations sites with sewage and industrial effluents and one irrigated site with tube well water. The treatments were replicated three times under randomized block design, with soils and crops plant. Effect of continuous application of sewage and industrial effluent on soil properties, nutrients status and pollutant elements in soils and plants in the adjoining areas of Karnal district of Haryana was ascertained. An appreciable increase in organic carbon, available N, P, K contents was recorded in the sewage and industrial effluents irrigated soils. pH and Electrical conductivity of sewage and industrial effluents irrigated soils was much higher than tube well water irrigated soils. Application of sewage and industrial effluents resulted in the accumulation of heavy metals in surface soil. he mean contents of micronutrients and heavy metals viz., Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu, Pb, Cd, Cr, and Ni in the soils irrigated with sewage and industrial effluents was significantly higher respect to tube-well water. The concentration of micronutrients and heavy metals viz., Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu, Pb, Cd, Cr and Ni in leafy plants grown under sewage and industrial effluents application was higher as compared to cereal crops and then tube well water irrigation plants.
