2006• Large scale soil survey at scales 1:25000 (since 1956

year) and 1:10000 (since 1971 year) – soil maps and reports for the cooperative farms with profiles (about 50000 for the whole country) information for:– Soil profile morphological description;– Soil particle size distribution and texture classes (pipette

method, Katchinski, 1956)– pH in KCl (1:2.5 soil 1N KCl extract, pH meter);– Organic matter content (method of Tjurin, 1965)– Total amount of nitrogen (method of Kieldal)– Total amount of phosphorus (method of Ginsburg)– Calcium carbonates (method of Shaibler)

• Soil agrochemical survey at scale 1:25000 of arable lands:– Total and available forms of macro and microelements

• Soil maps of the whole territory of Bulgaria: – 1: 500 000 (Poushkarov et al., 1931) – 1: 200 000 (Koinov, Tanov, 1956) – 1: 400 000 (Koinov et al., 1968; last digital ver., 2002 by

SRA) – 1:1000 000 (Koinov et al., 1973; Boyadjiev, 1994; digital

ver. 1994 by INRA – BG coordinator I. Kolchakov)

• Large scale survey at scales 1:5000, 1:1000 of soils with particular problems – salinisation, pollution with heavy metals, oil products, radionuclides or pesticides

• Analytical data for physical, hydrological, chemical, physico-chemical characteristics of the main soil units collected in monographs, habilitation theses, project research reports. Specific databases have been developed on: – atmosphere-plant-soil-groundwater continuum; – soil physical properties; – soil hydraulic properties; – organic carbon stocks; – field plots for soil erosion studies; – subsoil compaction – literature, experiments and results,

etc.

• Long-term field experimental data from different agroecological regions concerning:

– Management water and nutrient cycles for improvement of soil fertility

– Conservation agricultural practices for soil degradation prevention– Remediation of degraded lands

Assessment the aeration status of soils using the experimental data and calculated reference

bulk density's values

The optimal, critical and limiting values of bulk density were calculated at 20/15%, 10% and 5% drainage-aeration pores, respectively, using experimental data for particle density and field

capacity.
