Abstract
A network of 19 rain gauges was set up over Belgium in agricultural zones. Determination of heavy metals content of water samples collected during a 1 year meteorological cycle allowed to estimate wet plus dry deposition rate of many toxic metal over the country. It appears that soil contamination by deposition exceeds contamination through the use of chemical fertilizers.
