Popis: Background: Accumulation of heavy metals and increasing their concentration and reaching them to the danger range can threaten human health by entering to food chain. Thus, continuous monitoring of pollutants consentration in agricultural products is important. So, the aim of this study was to investigate the heavy metals concentration and risk assessment resulting from them in agriculture product with two types of irrigation in farms of Dayyer city which is one of the counties in Boushehr province. Material and Methods: Samples of agriculture product were harvested in three in three categories vegetables included: leafy (lettuce, spinach, cabbage), tuber (onion, potato), and fruit (tomato, green pepper) from farms of Dayyer city with two types of irrigation included River Water Irrigation (RWI( and Ground Water Irrigation (GWI). Totally 320 samples were analyzed by using (ICP-OES -Spectrum Arcos) after acidic digestion steps and extraction of heavy metals from samples. Then, the obtained results were analyzed by diffrent equations and statistic softwares. Results: results showed that the concentrations of metals were 68.75 (47.71), 277.62 (196.12), 32.68 (18.31), 42.19 (17.09), 1.76 (0.87) and 12.04 (5.83) mg kg-1 for Zn, Mn, Cu, Cr, Cd and Pb in RWI (and GWI), respectively in irrigated farms with river water (farms irrigated by ground water). The concentration of heavy metals was significantly higher in the soil of farms which irrigated with river water than those which irrigated with ground water (P
