Abstract

The paper presents data to establish degree of chemical degradation of soils in Kabanbai and Maximovka villages, Tselinograd region, Akmola province on the basis of analysis of trace elements. It was found that according to reduction of trace elements of copper and cobalt in percentage at the average degree of availability these soils are graded IV degree of degradation and according to demanganization they are graded III degree of degradation.To prevent further degradation it is necessary to reduce anthropogenic load on soil. During crop cultivation in such soils apart from mineral fertilizers it is necessary to apply micro fertilizers, which contain the missing micronutrients.
