Abstract
SUMMARY: Soil samples taken by soil auger to a depth of 150 mm from randomly selected agricultural fields throughout England and Wales were analysed for total As, B, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Se and Zn, acetic acid‐extractable Cd, Co, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn, EDTA‐extractable Cd, Co, Cu, Ni, Pb, Se and Zn, ammonium oxalate extractable Ni and Mo and hot water‐extractable B. Median, log‐derived mean and range data are given for each element. Median values are given also by parent material and textural grouping.Keywords
