(Dragana) Examination of chemical and physical properties of halomorphic soils in the Surčin area– Republic of Serbia salt affected soils, solonchak, solonetz, reclamation measures application/pdf 943317 bytes Abstract: Halomorphic soils, as stated in a recent survey (Škorić, Filipovski, Ćirić, 1985; Miljković, 1996) are divided into three classes: the class of saline soils–solonchak type of soil, the class of alkalized soils– solonetz type of soil, and the class of dealkalized soils–solod type of soil. This research was conducted in the area of the Surčin municipality, CM Petrovčić and CM Progar, Belgarde city, in order to determine its suitability for intensive agricultural production on saline soils as stated in a recent survey (Group of authors, 2019). According to pedological map of the Republic of Serbia, in the area of CM Petrovčić, of 2086 ha of agricultural soil, 34.88 percent belongs to solonchak and solonetz soils, while within CM Progar, of 3587.24 ha of agricultural soil, 8.24 percent belongs to mentioned soil types. Saline soils are used mainly as pastures and meadows with very low grass yields and less often as arable soils. On these soils (Belić, Nešić and Ćirić, 2014), agricultural production is difficult and depends on the method of cultivation and agricultural techniques, the distribution of moisture during the year, and the selection of appropriate crops that can thrive in the given conditions. info:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObject
