The study presented in this paper deals with heavy metals content in vineyard soils from 44 individual producers lots from VOjvodina Province, as well as detailed analyses of heavy metals content in vineyards from 3 sites (Sremski Karlovci, Banostor and Vrsac) in comparison with the control sample. Vojvodinian vineyard soils are generally not contaminated with heavy metals, with the exception of copper due to long-term intensive application of copper-based fungicide. In soil of 44 small vineyards, local contamination with Cr and Zn was found on one locality each, and geochemical origin Ni content higher than MAC in 9 samples from Fruska Gora. On the second part of this study, content of all heavy metals, excluding Cu, was below MAC. However, in compariosn to the control sample, the content of As, Cd, Co, Cr, Ni and Pb was higher in vineyard soils at due to antropogenic influence and application of agro-chemicals.
