coal” to g eth e r w ith peat; such a d istin ct stab ilizatio n of hum ic com pounds
in th e form of o rg an o -m in eral com plexes is not lik e ly to occur in soils
of such a “lig h t” te x tu re .
A sm all am o u n t of soluble in w eak solvents su b stances prooves th e
presence of a g re a t q u a n tity of “h um ic organic coal” an d o th er su b stances
u n d ergo in g slow decom position. T hey m icrobiological decom position is
slow er th e n in o th er soils in v estig a ted because of th e bro ad est rela tio n of
C :N an d because of a sm all c o n ten t of sim ple organic com pounds.
It is, how ever, in te re stin g th a t th o u g h slow y e t successive h u m ificatio n
process leads above all to th e fo rm atio n of h um ic acids.

H ow ever th e in tro d u c ed m elio ration m an u re doses decom pose m uch
q u ick e r th a n peat. This is fav o u red by g re a te r p a rticip a tio n of th e in tro
duced m a tte r of organic com pounds w hich easily undergo m icrobiological
resto ra tio n . In a d eep er lay e r (40— 50 cm), how ever in rela tio n to th e
su rface on th is process is slow er w h a t fac ilita te s the follow ing m a n u re
action and it obviously in h ib its possible losses w hich m ay occur in lig ht
soil d u rin g a rap id decom position of th e organic m atte r.
The delay of th e decom position process can be seen d istin ctly by the in
creased am o u n t of fre sh hum ic com pounds (py rophosphate fraction) still
a fte r 5 y ears in th e deeper lay er an d by a g e n e ra lly considerable am o un t
of soluble form s in th a t horizon, w h ereas in u p p er horizons no d istin ct
d ifferen ces in rela tio n to ty p ical cu ltiv atio n are observed. It is w o rth
noticing th a t like in th e m elio rated soil w ith peat th e re can be found an
increase of hum ic acids co n ten t w ith th e use of m an u re w h a t can be tak e n
as th e facto r of im proved farm in g [3].
Less sig n ifican t th o u g h d istin ct differences w ere found in the com po
sition of organic com pounds by ty p ic a l c u ltiv atio n b u t u n d e r various p la n t
cover. A d istin ct increase of m obile hum ic com pounds, soluble in p y ro
p h osphates, can be noticed in a sam ple of b are fallow . T he organic com
pounds in th a t sam ple possess a m ore m obile ch a ra c te r, and hu m u s acids
a re rep re sen te d by th e con tained q u a n tity of fulvic acids the rela tio n of
w hich to hum ic acids is th e b ro ad est of all soils in v estig ated. D ue to
th e lack of fresh organic m a tte r su p p ly for th a t soil it appears th a t th e
decom position of th e p ro p er hum ic com pounds by the soil “ed afon ” is lik e
ly to s ta rt w h a t m ust re s u lt w ith d e te rm in e d succession in d ep olym eriza
tio n an d d econdensation of acids and in th e occurrence of a m ore consi
d e ra b le am o u n t of h u m in e acids w ith a sm all arom atic nucleus (fulvic
acids).
The im p ro v em en t of conditions for th e fo rm ation of a g re a te r am ou nt
of hum ic acids, th ou gh not so d istin ct as by m elioration ploughing, can be
observed u n d e r th e cover of sh eep ’s fescue. This is confirm ed by th e
d a ta o b tained an d by those fro m o th er soils on th e influence of som e m an y
y ears old p la n t covers [10, 11] on th e com position of hum ic com pounds.
U n d er grass cover th is tak e s place m ain ly due to th e p e rm a n en t lack of
o x y d a tio n because of th is field being not c u ltiv a te d for m an y y ears an d
because of a re la tiv e ly ste a d y su p p ly of a fre sh organic m atte r.
From th e ex tin ctio n cu rves th e re can be observed an advantag eous
in flu en ce of m elioration ploughing not only on th e increase of hum ic acids
a m o u n t b u t also on th e condensation degree of th e ir aro m atic nucleus.
A rom atic nuclei of hum ic acids in th e u p p er layers of soils w ith m elio
ra tio n ploughing w ith th e use of m an u re an d p eat are bigger th a n those
of acids selected fro m oth er soils. The sm allest nu clei occur in h um ic acids
fro m th e m elioratio n la y e r of m an u re. This w ould su p p o rt e a rlie r s ta te
m en ts an d still active re sto ra tio n processes of organic m a tte r in th e poli-
