To evaluate the iron composition in the water and vitamin C and iron concentration in the grapes juices of channat valley.Total 30 samples of water was collected for analysis from the valley and 20 samples of different grapes benches is selected from different locations for evaluation. Method.For analysis of iron metal in water and grapes an Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) was used, for determination of vitamin C in grape juice a traditional titration method is adopted. Result. The composition of iron in channat valley water is 0.0885 mg/L (mean), the concentration of vitamin C in the grapes juice was 12.25 mg/100 g(mean) and the iron in grapes juice is 0.347 mg/100g (mean).
