A study was carried out in agricultural areas near industrial and urban areas of district Etah and Kanshiram nagar during the year 2007-2008 to access the nature and extent of soil with heavy metals due to use of industrial and municipal sewage water for irrigation. Due to easy and chargeless source of water, farmers of sampling areas use sewage water for irrigation purpose. The sewage water samples were scrutinized for colour, PH, electrical conductance, total solid content and for heavy metals. The samples of soil irrigated by sewage water were scrutinized for moisture content , PH, electrical conductance, organic matter and for heavy metals. All areas under study have moisture content, PH, electrical conductance, organic matter and for heavy metals as lead copper, cadmium, Zinc and iron were not observed above toxic level.
