Present study was carried during the year 2015 at seven different villages on 250 farmers field in East Sikkim District to analyze different soil chemical properties. Average SOC% was significantly higher in Tympyem village (1.39%). Soil was more acidic in sajong village (pH 4.98) compare to other village. Average mean value of pH was 5.42 (strongly acidic), SOC 1.29% (high), available nitrogen 313.20 kg/ha (medium), available phosphorus 17.30 kg/ha (medium), available potassium 455.25 kg/ha (high), available sulphur 21.45 kg/ha (medium). Average B content was higher in Samlik village (5.88 ppm), zinc content in Lossing (2.16), Iron content in Sajong (69.16 ppm), copper content in Tympyem (2.31 ppm) and manganese content in sajong (36.24 ppm).
