Abstract
The long-term influence of anthropogenic factor and natural phenomena on qualitative characteristics of brown forest soils was studied and compared.
AS a result of the research it was established that long-term uncoordinated use of brown forest soils in agriculture, climate change, gradual increase in temperature, decrease in precipitation, increased winds and droughts led to deterioration of qualitative characteristics of soil, acceleration of erosion, degradation and desertification phenomena and decrease in soil fertility.
To solve the problem, it was proposed to create forest shelterbelts, introduce new technologies for resource-saving soil cultivation, plant care, enrich the soil with organic and mineral (macro, micro) fertilizers, use agricultural crop rotation, carry out irrigation by drip and sprinkler methods, expand the area of greenhouse farms.
Key words: brown forest soils, humus, soil erosion, structure, mechanical composition, exchange cations, water-stable aggregates.
