Sažetak
In order to establish the level of soil compaction in natural conditions on Luvisol and Rendzina in forest and meadow ecosystem of Kalnik area research of mechanical soil resistance and current moisture content was conducted in 2014 and 2015. In 2014 the lowest value of mechanical soil resistance in humus accumulative horizon A was observed in Rendzina in the forest ecosystem in all three measurings, whereas the highest value was observed in the Luvisol of the meadow ecosystem. Similar results were observed in the following year of research. The lowest value of mechanical soil resistance was also observed in Rendzina of the forest ecosystem in all three measurings. However, statistically justifiable lower value of mechanical soil resistance of Rendzina in the forest ecosystem was observed only in the third measuring in relation to all other researched variants (p < 0,05). The research also established average higher content of current moisture in the soil for Rendzina in the forest ecosystem, whereas the lowest value was observed in Luvisol in the forest ecosystem. Less favourable conditions of soil compaction and lower average values of the current moisture content in the soil were generally observed in 2015. Based on the above stated it can be concluded that for Rendzina, in comparison with Luvisol, more favourable conditions of soil compaction were observed, as well as higher average moisture content.
