Abstract: The systematic and comprehensive geochemical analysis of fluoride (F) in twenty agricultural soil samples
was carried out to understand spatial variability, mechanism of retention and release, and the areas of potential risk due
to high concentrations of F in soil around Sidhi District, Central India. The spatial variations in physico-chemical
parameters revealed significant difference in the methods of cultivation due to geomorphological constraints, availability
of surface water and ground water etc., in the study area. The north and small pocket in central Sidhi were rich in fertile
soils due to availability of surface and ground water. The southern and eastern Sidhi were rainfed areas, hence, the
monocropping system by traditional methods showed less impact on the soil physico-chemical parameters. The soil F
varied from 366.94 to 1178 mg/kg and 2-4 times greater than the background soil value (320 mg/kg) of the world. The
pollution indexes were > 1 indicating prevalence of elevated soil fluorine.
Keywords: Soil fluorine, Fertilizers, Geogenic, Silicate minerals, Madhya Pradesh
