Abstract

This paper shows the result of soil-plant relation in samples from Cuban sugar canes of different soil types and cane varieties, using INAA from a thermal reactor. The behavior of minor and trace elements in sugar cane leaves is unifor and independent of sugar cane variety of type of soil. The soil-plant relation shows four principal groups of micro elements, according to their absorption by the plant.
