The compound SmCr{sub 1−x} Fe{sub x}O{sub 3} perovskites were prepared by citric acid route. the samples were characterized by XRD and SEM. The temperature and field dependent magnetization measurements were carried out in the temperature range of 5K −400 K at 0.01T field and −5T to 5T field at 2K. SmCrO3 compound has shown two magnetic transition temperatures at 197 K and 38 K. The observed behavior at 197 K is the characteristic of anti-ferromagnetic ordering of Cr{sup 3+} moments with weak ferromagnetism. The drop in magnetization below 38 K is due to the spin reorientation of Sm{sup 3+} in anti ferromagnetic arrangement and Cr{sup 3+}spins. the doping of Fe in SmCrO{sub 3} compound has shown a decrease in T{sub N1} and also the two magnetization reversals at 177K and 57K. The magnetic behavior at low temperatures is (T
