The organic residues are able to change heavy metals in soil and plant. The objective of this work was to evaluate the sewage sludge and/or vinasse effects in Cd, Cr, Ni and Pb soil valuable contents and sugarcane accumulated amounts after three successive annual applications. The experiment was conducted in field conditions. The experimental plots were made of five plant lines spaced of 1.5 m, with 10 m of length. The experimental design was a randomized blocks with three replications. The treatments were: 1. Sewage sludge (100% of N); 2. Sewage sludge (200% of N); 3. Vinasse (100% of K); 4. Vinasse (200% of K); 5. Sewage sludge plus vinasse (100% of N and K); 6. Sewage sludge plus vinasse (200% of N and K); 7. Control (mineral fertilization to sugarcane plants). The small soil heavy metal contents and small sugarcane heavy metal accumulated amounts it can be draw that the used residues, at these doses, do not present, until this moment, soil-plant system contamination potential.
