2 982 soils sampled in tobacco fields of Enshi region from November 2011 to April 2012 were tested by routine method,the results were analyzed and compared with the related data in recent 30 years.Results showed that,the percentage of acid soils(pH<5.5)in tobacco fields in Enshi region accounted for 37.7%.The content of soil organic matter(OM),total nitrogen(N),alkalystic N,available phosphorus(P)and available potassium(K)was(24.1±7.9）g/kg,（1.90±0.53）g/kg,（151.4±42.5）mg/kg,（41.5±21.9）mg/kg and（239.3±140.6）mg/kg,respectively.Compared with the data in 2001,acid soils(pH<5.5)in tobacco fields increased by about 29.3%,soil OM content tended to decrease.The content of soil total N and alkalystic N increased rather quickly form 1981 to 2001,while was relatively stable from 2001 to 2011.Soil available P content had tended to increase since 1981,and increased rather rapidly during 2001~2011.Soil available K content was rather stable from 1981 to 2001,whereas increased a little bit rapidly during 2001~2011.The above results implied that,the changing tendency of soil nutrients in tobacco fields in Enshi region was to some extent different from that of most arable land in China,which was closely related to the fertilization status on tobacco.
