Abstract

1-Introduction The pollution of Soils with the potentially toxic element is a worldwide problem. Potentially Toxic Elements presented in the Soils can enter to other compartments of the ecosystems and thereby, lead to health problems in organisms (Rocco et al., 2016; Hasan et al., 2018). Some potentially Toxic Elements, e. g. Cr, Pb, Cd, Hg, As and Sb, present naturally in the environment, however, when their concentration increases, they can be harmful for the environment (Cai et al., 2019; Muhammad et al., 2019). In recent decades, anthropogenic sources including agricultural and industrial activities as well as urban development lead to the increase of the concentration of Toxic Elements in the environment (Karimi et al., 2017; Cai et al., 2019). The application of fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides during the agricultural activity is one of the most important sources of potentially Toxic Elements in the environment; therefore, in the agricultural fields the concentration of these pollutants in the Soil can be higher than the natural background values (Nash et al., 2003; Atafar et al., 2010; Karimi et al., 2017; Hasan et al., 2018). Thus, in agricultural Soils there is a serious health Risk imposed by Toxic Elements because of the accumulation of these pollutants in the food chain (Walter et al, 2002; Rocco et al., 2016). Aleshtar plain is an important agricultural field in Lorestan Province. The aim of the present study is to investigate the concentration of the potentially Toxic Elements in agricultural Soils, to determine the source of the pollutants, and to assess the health Risk imposed by Toxic Elements...
