The evaluation and analysing the boron concentration rate in soil of north Basrah city (Iraq) by carmine method

Abstract

One of the primary goal of the current research is to estimate the concentration of Boron element 105 B in soil of North of Basrah in Iraq. The evaluation was achieved by analysing the soil samples obtained from 34 locations using carmine method. The estimation range of Boron concentration was between 0.259 ppm to 0.757 ppm corresponding to Al-Huwair, Al-Mhayit and Al-Huwar river EZZ in soil respectively. It can be noticed from the study that all the surface soil samples under the test have a boron ratio within the natural limits for drinking water supplies for the people.
