Among various pollutants, heavy metals with persistence, non-biodegradation, toxicity and bioavailability pose a major threat to all components of the environment. In soil of vineyard area near Nitra (Slovakia) were analysed four heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn) in order to assess soil contamination. Contamination factor (CF), degree of contamination (DC) and pollution load index (PLI) were used in order to determine the level of environmental contamination of the study area. The average values of CF in soils decreased in the following order: Zn>Cd>Pb>Cu. According to the CF, Zinc was determined as the biggest pollutant. The evaluated area was classified as considerable contaminated with Zn and moderate contaminated with the other investigated metals. According to DC, studied area was rated as low contaminated, but according to PLI, it was extremely polluted. The highest concentrations of investigated heavy metals were found in the southern side, which may be due to the presence of the cart-road.
