description | The subject of the research were agricultural farms from Przysucha county (Masovian Voivodeship, Poland). Assessment of farms’ ecological results was the purpose of the thesis. Evaluation was made by using selected indicators: minerals balance, soil’s organic substances balance and vegetation cover of soil’s index. The research was carried out among 100 chosen agricultural farms, situated on light soil - rye soil. Ecological assessment of examined farms showed that all of minerals balances (N,P,K) and soil’s organic substances balances were positive. In the case of nitrogen, balances exceeded the limit value 30 kg N·ha-1. Vegetation cover of soil’s index, as regards arable land, did not reach recommended value, i.e. at least 60%. However cover of utilised agricultural area soil was similar to recommended level (>70%). That was because of the large orchards and permanent crops share in horticultural farms, as well as large permanent grassland share in bovine and mixed farms. |
