Quality of the Paharang drain effluents at Faisalabad and its surrounding industrial units with respect to EC, SAR, RSC, macroand micro-nutrients and impact on soils as well as plants was assessed. It was found that all the contributing industrial effluents have higher concentration of solutes than that of the main drain at Marzipura and Uchkera villages though all were unfit for irrigation. The effluents from the Walayat flour mills were of much better quality than the others. The fields under cauliflower and Chinese squash contained higher concentrations of Na, Ca, Mg, Cl, S04' Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Ni ions and total soluble salts than those in the canal irrigated fields in the same locality. Solute concentration was high at 0 to IS cm soil depth in fields receiving sewage water but decreased with soil depth. The concentrations of P, Fe, Mn, and Zn ions were much higher in soil compared to common observation and belief that makes further studies imperative. The fields receiving sewage water for 8 to 10 years were still not salinized/sodicated. The concentrations of N, P, K. Ca , Mg and Cl in leaves and fruits of both the vegetables were almost within safe limits. but leaves contained higher levels of these ions compared to those in their respective fruits.
