Abstract: An experiment examining the soil micronutrient status of the basmati growing areas of the Jammu sub-tropical was conducted. A total of 180 samples were collected from the study area. Surface soil (0-30) was examined for DTPA extractable Zn, Cu, Fe and Mn. The mean value of DTPA extractable Zn, Cu, Fe and Mn were 1.38, 3.89, 30.89 and 15.16 with a range of 0.18-13.07, 0.10-34.80, 4.50-80.65 and 2.40-64.88 µkg-1. From the study it was observed 43.8% of the samples were deficient in Zn while as 11.78% of the samples were deficient in Cu where Fe and Mn were present above critical limit.
