Soil samples were taken from different depths of soil such as 0-30 cm, 30-60 cm and 60-90 cm. Mineral content of soil and leaf samples from mulberry orchard were analysed. Available soil minerals of the orchards were found to be adequate levels in the study area. Mineral content of leaf samples were determined between 25.75 and 58.48 mg kg-1 for manganese, 13.53 and 41.15 mg kg-1 for zinc, 6.55 and 15.22 mg kg-1 for copper, 87.21 and 152.49 mg kg-1 for iron, 0.18 and 0.46% for phosphorus, 2.54 and 5.25% for nitrogen, 0.40 and 0.77% for magnesium, 1.36 and 2.90% for calcium and 1.58% and 2.79% for potassium. As a result, there were no found mineral deficiency in soil and leaf samples of mulberry orchard grown dried consuming as well as prepared as local specialties such as pekmez, pestil in the study area. © 2017, Centenary University.
