Studies on the dissolved nutrients and primary productivity of Kadalundi river, Kerala, India, were carried out during July 2016 to June 2017. In three stations maximum the maximum level of nitrate was reported in the month of July. The maximum level of phosphate was reported in station-A and station-B in March but station-C reported maximum level of phosphate in the months of February, March and April. The maximum level of silicate was reported in station-A and station-C in August and in station-B in the month of July. The maximum gross primary productivity (gC/m3/3hr) of station-A and station-B in the month of May but in station-C is in April. The maximum net primary productivity (gC/m3/3hr) of station-A and station-B in the month of November but in station-C is in April. The maximum community respiration (gC/m3/3hr) of station-A and station-B in the month of May but in station-C is in January.
