This study was aimed to find out the variation in total and HCl- extractable mineral composition of tomato, cabbage and brinjal irrigated with canal water and sodic water treated with gypsum and farm yard manure (FYM). Vegetables grown under soil irrigated with canal water (control) and soil irrigated with sodic water treated with gypsum and FYM at two different levels i.e. 50 % neutralization of sodicity (G1F2) and complete neutralization of sodicity (G2F2) were obtained from the Vegetable Research Farm, CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar.  Total and HCl- extractable minerals were analysed in acid digested samples. ANOVA was done to determine differences in mineral profile of vegetables grown under three different water treatments. Vegetables irrigated with G2F2 (100 % neutralization of sodicity) treated water and canal water (control) had higher (P
