Popis: | In light loamy soils and loamy sands of light chestnut associations, pasturing digression leads to an intensive decrease in the humus content to 0.4–0.7%. In the first three years of digression, the humus content decreases by 20% of its total amount, while the humic acids : fulvic acids : insoluble residue ratio remains the same. Pasture load, independently of its intensity, leads to a leveling of the total humus content and its fractions and to a certain uniformity in it. Preservation of residual humus content can promote the restoration of soils after the cessation of pasturing. |
