Soil pollution results from the build up of contaminants, toxic compounds, radioactive materials,
salts, chemicals and cancer-causing agents. The most common soil pollutants are hydrocarbons, heavy metals
(cadmium, lead, chromium, copper, zinc, mercury and arsenic), herbicides, pesticides, oils, tars, PCBs and
dioxins. Soil Electrical Conductivity (EC) is one of the soil physical properties w hich have a good relationship
with the other soil characteristics. As measuring soil electrical conductivity is easier, less expensive and faster
than other soil properties measurements, using a detector that can do on the go soil EC measurements is a good
tool for obtaining useful information about soil pollution condition.
Key words: EC detector, environmental effect, soil electrical conductivity, soil pollution, , ,
