The present investigation in relation to “Assessment of nutrient status of cotton growing soil in Amravati district.” was undertaken during 2020-21. Total 60 i.e. 30 Surface and 30 subsurface soil samples were collected and analysed for their chemical properties and micronutrient status in soil. The results revealed that, neutral to slightly alkaline in reaction with no salinity hazard, low to high in organic carbon, calcium carbonate were moderately high to high in category. The DTPA-extractable iron in Dhamangaon and Chandur block were low to medium (4.10-7.00 mg kg^-1, 4.01-6.22 mg kg^-1, respectively), medium to very high for copper (0.24-1.33 mg kg^-1) in Dhamangaon block and medium to high (0.22-0.92 mg kg^-1) in Chandur block. Whereas, soils of Dhamangaon and Chandur block were moderately high to high in manganese (4.50-8.70 mg kg^-1 and 4.45-8.12 mg kg^-1, respectively) and very low to moderately high in zinc (0.50-1.56 mg kg^-1 and 0.25-1.36 mg kg^-1) respectivel0079.
