A two-year pot experiment with alfalfa was carried out on an Albic Luvisol contaminated with As and with Cu/As. To study the effect of physicochemical soil melioration on arsenic uptake, the soil was treated with the optimal dose of lime and with various amounts of a pre-composted mixture of lime and coal powder. The compost and the lime application increased plant yield. Plant yield was correlated with the arsenic content in plant
