Abstract :
Introduction: Destruction and environmental pollution is the result of industrial societies and one of achievements of industrialization of human societies. The aim of this study was to investigate soil contamination and agricultural yields to copper, nickel and cadmium in Khorramabad city in Lorestan province, that for investigation of soil pollution was used of Igeo, Ipoll, EF index in 2015 year.
Method and material: A total of 18 composition samples were collected from surface soil and agriculture yields in studied area. Samples were extracted after acidic digestion and metals were determined in soil samples and agriculture products by atomic adsorption spectrometry. In the end the data obtained were analyzed by SPSS 20.
Results: Amount of Igeo and Ipoll index was achieved for total of obtained metals between 0-2. copper and cadmium in agriculture soil of Khorramabad city had more man-made source, and nickel had more natural origin. Values of Ipoll index showed that the most of samples being in sort of no pollution until average pollution and EF index had the most cadmium value.
Coclutions: The analysis of pollution index showed that copper, nickel and cadmium had geological origin and agriculture. In fact, these metals there had naturally in soil, but agricultural practices and use of chemical fertilizers lead to the accumulation of more and more of these metals in soil. With attention to health risk index identified that the consumtion of agriculture products in Khorramabad city will not create any problem for human health.
