Accumulate Function Concerning Nutrients in Slovak Agricultural Soils

Abstract

Accumulate soil function directly influences the nutrient movement and their accumulation in the soil. On the basis of nitrogen mineralization in the soil and chosen soil parameters (soil depth, content of gravel in the soil, soil slop, content of clay particles in the soil). Were created five categories of the agricultural soils according to the ability of nutrients accumulation. The maps of soil ability to accumulate nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium were additionally acumulate phosphorus and 16% soil to accumulate potassium. On the other side it is only 6% of soil with very weak ability to accumulate nitrogen, 14% to accumulate phosphorus and 20% to accumulate potassium.
