GENESIS, PROPERTIES AND AMENDMENT OF PODZOLISED CHERNOZEMS OF THE WEST FOREST-STEPPE IN UKRAINE

Abstract

This review paper introduces the Podzolised chernozems in West Ukraine. Chernozems are reputed as the most productive and fertile soils of which Podzolised chernozem takes the position of the subtype in Ukrainian system of Soil Classification and covers minor highland of Forest-Steppe areas in the west and east of Ukraine. The paper describes the local Podzolised chernozem formation factors: general climate, vegetation, topography, parent materials and areas of their distribution. It has been reported particularities of genesis, morphology and other properties of Podzolised chernozem depending of local conditions and management. Soil conservation practices of Podzolised chernozems were also outlined and discussed in this paper.
