A nutritional survey was conducted by collecting soils, plants and blood samples in the Butana region of Sudan. The samples were analysed for major and minor elements. Data obtained were compared with established standards used for assessing nutrient status of soils, plants and animals. Results indicated that available macro- and micro-nutrient levels in Butana soils are adequate for normal pasture and animal growth and development. The authors recommend continued monitoring.
