The main objective of the study is to determine the availability of trace elements in soils of Ropar and Garhshankar Forest division of Punjab. For analysis of the soils, 34 soil samples were collected from different nursery plantation of Ropar and Garhshankar Forest division in Punjab. The available trace elements can be determined in DTPA extract using AAS. The trace elements consider in this soils were Zn, Mn, Cr, Cu, Fe and Co. After analyses, the result found to be highly contaminated with heavy metals in the soils of this region. The ranges of available trace elements are Zn(0.003-8.084)ppm, Mn(1-5)ppm, Cr(0-9.5)ppm, Cu(0-1.7)ppm, Fe(0-8)ppm, Co(0-1.5)ppm. The increasing order of the trace elements of this soils were Co<Cu<Mn<Fe<Zn<Cr. The pH of Punjab soil is slightly alkaline which ranges from 7 to 8.9. The bulk density and porosity are dependent on soil texture and the densities of soil mineral (sand, silt, and clay) and organic matter particles, as well as their packing arrangement. The bulk density and porosity in soil of Punjab shows that the soils in this region are loosely arranged and less compact.
