Sažetak
In Croatia, as everywhere else, the most productive soils should be conserved and protected from being reassigned for other purposes. Construction of settlements, highways, roads, airports, harbours, sports facilities in the Republic of Croatia causes an annual loss of about 6, 700 ha of agricultural land. Since most damage is incurred to the most fertile agricultural soils, Croatian legal acts (Agricultural Land Act, Official Gazette 66/2001, Regional Planning Act, Official Gazette 30/94, Content and Criteria Rulebook, Official Gazette… 106/98) stipulate the need to preserve better agricultural soils by avoiding non-agricultural land use as well as the obligation of soil classification and designing bases according to the land suitability classes. Pursuant to the said regulations, no construction should be undertaken on highly valuable agricultural soils, which under the FAO classification (FAO, 1976, Brinckman and Smith, 1972) correspond to S1 suitability class, valuable agricultural soils (S2 suitability class), and other agricultural soils (S3 suitability class). Construction may freely proceed on the other agricultural and forest soils, belonging to the lower classes of land suitability or not-suitability (currently or permanently not suitable soils). The said standards classify also forest soils into three groups: forest soils for forestry management purposes (F1), forest soils with a protective role in terms of soil conservation (F2), and forest soils for special purposes – national parks, nature reserves, etc. (F3). The paper provides examples of soil classification for the needs of designing the regional plan of the Lika-Senj County, where the thematic maps have to be made on a scale of 1:100, 000 and in the Lepoglava municipality on a scale of 1:25, 000, because the applicable Law postulates these criteria for land evaluation at these levels.
