Item EVALUAREA SOLURILOR CENUȘII DE PĂDURE ÎN CONTEXTUL SCHIMBĂRII FACTORILOR PEDOGENETICI CONDIȚIONATE DE IMPACTUL FACTORULUI ANTROPIC(CEP USM, 2024) Lungu, MarinaThe study examines the evolution of gray forest soils in Central Moldova’s Codri region under conditions following deforestation for arable use. It compares soils under natural forest with 100-year-old arable soils and soils previously used in agriculture and subsequently transformed under steppe conditions. Agricultural conversion merged forest soil horizons (AEhț, AEh, BEhtw), resulting in reduced humus content and illuvial-eluvial processes, reduced soil resistance to compaction, leading to soil’s physical structure degradation and soil compaction. In conclusion, arable gray soils require soil management to increase organic matter, reduce soil acidity and improve physical properties in the plow layer to optimize crop growth.
