Abstract

The objective was to justify the need of irrigation recommencement and expansion of irrigation areas. We studied state of dark chestnut soil and made the assessment of the regeneration degree of its properties over 15 years after found out from irrigation. The Investigations were carried out on the example of the pilot farms – SC "Radyans’ka zemlya”", Belozersky district, Kherson region, in the Ingulets irrigation system. The program included studies of physical-chemical, chemical and physical properties of soil and irrigation water quality. In the post-irrigation period (over 15 years) the gradual regeneration of the properties of the long irrigated soil occurs. The processes of desalinization (reduction of toxic salts content to 0.04-0.08 %), dealkalinization (decrease of the exchangeable sodium and potassium concentration to 2.5-2.9 %), decompaction are developed. In the soil the amount of agronomically useful structure aggregates (10 %) was increased. The content of lumpy fraction (8-9 %) was decreased. On the basis of the results of the integrated soil assessment this soil is recommended for introduction in irrigated agriculture.
