Considering the Sumé Irrigated Perimeter revitalization process the present work aims, throughout the soil chemical characterization of the area diagnostic the soil situation and offer subsidies to allow an adequate soil management. On the experimental area (33 plots totalizing 33 ha) soil samples were collected at 0-20 cm depth and characterized chemically. The obtained results were statistically using classical descriptive statistical techniques. With the exception of the organic matter, the others chemical properties are in adequate levels for the crop development. It is recommended, however, the incorporation of organic matter in the area soils. No salinity or sodicity hazards were founded in the analyzed soil samples. Different variation coefficients were observed on the analyzed chemical properties.
