Thirty-eight paired samples of soil and sugar beet leaves were collected during 1987, from farmer's fields of Charsadda and Mardan tehsils which are predominant sugarbeet growing areas of Peshawar Valley. These samples were analysed for their major and minor nutrient element concentrations. Soil samples were also analysed for their physio-chemical characteristics. Correlation studies were also made between various nutrient values. The data showed that the majority of the soils were deficient in N and phosphorus while adequate in potash, DTPA extractable Cu, Fe and Mn were adequate in all soils except 8 where only Fe content was marginal. Zinc content of the soil was deficient at 3 sites while adequate in the rest. Iron was deficient in two leaf samples and Mn in one while Cu and Zn were adequate in all leaf samples. Copper content of the soil was positively correlated with organic matter, phosphorus and lime. Iron had positively significant correlation with pH and organic matter. Manganese had positive and significant correlation with pH and negatively significant correlation with lime content of the soil. Zinc had positively significant correlation with phosphorus.
