Abstract

The aim of this paper was to determine the basic properties of soil for the production of quality planting materials of poplar and willow. Undeveloped alluvial soil (fluvisol) is characterized physiologically active depth profile of 115 cm. The average depth profile is the dominant fraction of fine sand (from the surface to 115 cm). Below the 115 cm the dominant fraction is sandy-clay loam. Humus content is low (0.1%) in depth from 15 to 115 cm. Carbonate content is high and ranges from 14.18 to 16.77%. The reaction of soil solution is alkaline (average 7.8). Carbon content was higher in surface horizon of alluvial undeveloped soil in relation to the former humus dark soil horizon.


Keywords: alluvial undeveloped soil (fluvisol), nursery, edaphic conditions
