Arazi kullanım türü değişikliklerinin toprakların bazı fiziksel ve kimyasal özelliklerine etkisinin araştırılması

Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of land use changes on some soil physical and chemical properties in Binbaşıoğlu and Belpınar Villages of Tokat-Zile district. Research topics are as; Belpınar Village continuous farmland (A), Belpınar Village from farmland converted to forestland (B), Binbaşıoğlu Village continuous farmland (C), Binbaşıoğlu Village continuous grassland (D), Binbaşıoğlu Village continuous forestland (E) and Binbasioglu Village from forestland convert to farmland (F). Soil erodibility, texture, very fine sand, coarse material, aggregate stability, bulk density, dispersion ratio, hydraulic conductivity, lime content, pH, EC and organic matter of soils were evaluated. Dispersion ratios were below 15% and were evaluated as resist to erosion. Similarly, the soil erodibility values of research subjects have been identified low-medium erodible soils. Lack of sufficient vegetation in continuous pasture and forestlands has been effective in insufficient organic matter content and aggregate stability of soils. The expected positive and negative changes could not be observed due to less than 10 years of continuous agriculture, forest-to-agricultural and agricultural-to- forestland.
