Chemical properties of long-term irrigated Fluvisols of the Beli Drim river valley in the Klina region (Serbia)
The impact of long-term (> 100 yr) irrigation on soil chemical properties was studied on eight plots in the Beli Drim river valley in Kosovo and Metohija near Klina, Serbia. For these studies, soil samples from shallow profiles were collected from only one or two depth zones of the Ah horizon; an...
