Abstract: Transfer of radiocesium from uncultivated peat, loam and two sandy soils to grass in northeastern Poland was evaluated. Samples of grass and soil were collected from the same area of about 100 m2 in the period from June 1988 to November 1991 twice a year. Grass was sampled from 1 m × 1 m squares by cutting to the plant base. Afterwards core samples of soil were taken from an area of 132.73 cm2. 134Cs, 137Cs and 40K were determined by gamma spectrometry. The average concentration of 137Cs (to 10 cm depth) in the studied areas was in the range from 22.8 ± 2.5 Bq kg−1 to 154.3 ± 13.7 Bq kg−1. The average concentration of this radionuclide in grass varied from 6.76 ± 0.99 Bq kg−1 dry weight (dry wt.) to 152.6 ± 37.4 Bq kg−1 dry wt and depended upon the type of soil. The transfer of radiocesium to grass in the studied soils decreased in the following order: Sand I > peat > Sand II > loam. The results indicated that apart from soil, other parameters also influenced the transfer of radiocesium to grass. It has been found that 134Cs from Chernobyl is more available to grass than 137Cs from nuclear weapon tests.
