Sažetak
In Podravina and Pozega Valley in Croatia, tobacco is an agricultural culture of particular interest and importance, with very long tradition. However, tobacco production takes place on soils with very different physical and chemical properties, which directly affects the yield and quality of tobacco. For the purpose of better knowledge of soil properties that are used in regular tobacco production in Croatia and the needs to remove present restrictions, it was organized during three year (2006-2008) field and laboratory soil search. Soil properties of 72 locations were analyzed in total and it has been found that the production of tobacco during the three-year period took place mainly on 9 soil types, with the 17 lower pedosystematic units. A soil type luvisol was identified on most locations (58%), with the most represented pedosystematic unit of luvisol on loess typical. Confirmed data show that the soils on which tobacco is grown in the studied areas of Croatia are extremely limited suitability for growing tobacco due to unfavorable soil reaction (pH), unfavorable humus content and unfavorable soil texture. Summing up the above mentioned data and the results of chemical and physical proprerties of soil on family farms in the area of lue-cured correct humus content with agrotechnical measure and avoid heavy soil texture wherever possible, especially on soils which are occasionally over-moistened.
