Abstract
The capacity of soddy-podzolic soils to fix ammonium nitrogen from fer tilizers was studied. The experiment demonstrated that this depends on soil texture, especially on the content of fine fractions and their m ineralogical composition. Soil aggregates of different dimensions were estimated quantitatively from the viewpoint of soil fertility.
