The study evaluates surface soil samples from a nearby region currently inhabited an area previously occupied by disposal of solid waste from various sources ( landfill ) in order to verify a possible efficiency in agricultural productivity and recovery of this land to the inhabitants of these avoiding probable disease areas . This research was carried out physico - chemical and chemical (pH, organic matter, exchangeable calcium and magnesium, exchangeable aluminum, exchangeable hydrogen and aluminum). The parameters studied were those recommended to the relevant literature , taking into account the results obtained in this work it is concluded that the studied soil in the neighborhood Beira Rio ( Tucuruí - PA ) has low fertility , by presenting acidic character possessing high availability of aluminum, thus raising the toxicity of the soil . While the content of organic matter varies intensely at all points due to the continuous removal of the solid residues from this area did not allow the formation horizons .

Index Terms - soil profiles, dump Riverside, fertility.
