16 Toxic salts -by calculation accord-
ing to the methodological recommenda-
tions of N. Bazilevich and N. Pankova [1].
Accounting for the alfalfa harvest
was carried out on a key site (in three rep-
lications) of 4´4 meters in size with the
drying of the green mass to an air-dry
state.
The field, stationary and laboratory-
analytical methods were used for research.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Observations of soil formation pro-
cesses showed that prior to reclamation
activities (1985), the initial humus content
in the 0-20 cm layer was ~ 2.5 %. After ma-
jor washing of saline soil (1985-1986) and
subsequent 3-year cultivation of alfalfa
(1986-1989), there was a slight increase in
the amount of humus in most experiment
points (which was 2.88%).
As a result of a long post-melioration
period (2016), the humus state of the stud-
ied soils shows little signs of improvement.
So in the composition of humus there was a
change in the soluble part of humus, and
the ratio of groups of humic and fulvic ac-
ids can be stated about some improvement
in the composition of humus - it is equal to
one. The humus content increased from
2.88 % to 3.08 % (0-20 cm), organic car-
bon increased from 1.19 % to 1.98 %, and
the ratio of humic acid to fulvic acids in the
0-40 cm layer increased from 1.0-1.03 to
1.04-1.18. Comparative assessment of
changes in the relative content of humus in
the soils of the agricultural landscape be-
fore reclamation and after reclamation was
carried out using the "soil index" method
(Aidarov I. P., 2004, 2009) [9].The basis of
the definition, which is based on the defini-
tion of humus reserves and composition
(humic and fulvate), reserves of the main
elements of mineral nutrition (nitrogen,
phosphorus, potassium) and acid-base in-
dicators (pH and hydrolytic acidity), ac-
cording to the formula:
