Abstract. Purpose and objectives. The research is aimed at studying the peculiarities of the distribution of gross forms of zinc, mumps, cadmium according to the soil profile of sod-podzolic sandy loam soils of agricultural lands of the Ryazan region and determining the current regional background. Methodology and methods. To solve the tasks set, pits with a depth of 1.5 m were laid in different regions of the region, the depth and structural features of the soil layer and the effect on the migration conditions of the studied elements were analyzed. Based on the results of determining the content of the studied elements in the soil at intervals of 0.1–0.2 m to the maternal, the calculation of background concentrations was performed. A comparative analysis of the proposed background values with well-known values of world and domestic researchers has been carried out. The scientific novelty of the conducted research lies in the fact that the proposed background values are modern and calculated directly for the sod-podzolic sandy loam soil of the Ryazan region. Results. The structure of soil profiles of sod-podzolic sandy loam soil at a depth of 110–120 cm has the following form: O – A – EL – ELBt – Bt – BtC – C. At the same time, noticeable geochemical barriers delaying the migration of heavy metals are noted in the horizon A and Bt. The obtained values of the studied elements were in the concentration ranges for Zn (5.4–12.8 mg/kg), Pb (2.1–7.4 mg/kg), Cd (0.031-0.081 mg/kg). Background concentrations are proposed: Zn – 8.3 mg/kg, Pb – 4.2 mg/kg, Cd – 0.053 mg/kg, which differ from the well-known values of world and domestic researchers presented in a comparative analysis and give a modern idea of the regional background content of gross forms of zinc, lead and cadmium in sod-podzolic sandy loam soils Ryazan region.
