The Soil and Agrochemical Characterization of Fallow and Old-Arable Grey Podzolized Soils of the Northern Forest-Steppe of West Siberia

L. A. Ignatiev, B. M. Klenov, S. Yu. Artymuk

Abstract

A comparative estimation of the long-fallow and old-arable grey forest soil with respect to granulometric composition, total content of organic matter and humic acids, total and nitrate nitrogen, mobile phosphorus and potassium compounds is presented. Changes in arable soil with respect to a 40-year  fallow land are the evidence of its degradation as a result of agricultural tenure of many years.
