Eugley characteristics and limitations in plant production on the County of Slavonski-Brod Posavina area

The aim of this paper was to determine the distribution and characteristics of hydromorphic soils, class gley soils, soil type eugley of County of Slavonski Brod-Posavina. According to basic soil map of the Republic of Croatia (scale 1:50 000) and previous studies in these investigations area 17 soil types where determined, of which 10 belong to automorphic soil, and 7 to hydromorphic soils. Eugley is wide spread soil (about 48 630 ha) in Couny of Slavonski Brod-Posavina. The texture of this soils is silty loam to silty clay loam in hypogley subtipes, or mostly loamy clay in amphygley. Vertic gley soil are characterized by high clay contents, and very low air holding capacity. It was determined that soils are calcareus and noncalcareus and they varied from acid to alkanline (pH KCl 5-7, 3) and show low to moderate supplies of phosphorus and potassium. Soil organic matter content is in wide range (from 0, 6% to 9, 59%). Mainly limiting factors of eugley for plant production are high level of underground water, high density, low infiltration, high level of clay particles, low air capacity, high soil plasticity and low phosphorus and potassium content.
