Agroecosystem soil and zoological features in the conditions of adaptive and landscape agriculture

The characteristic of physical and chemical properties of soils and soil mesofauna living in various biotopes in the conditions of landscape and adaptive system of agriculture is provided in article. Statistically significant distinctions of physical and chemical properties and the number of taxonomical groups of soil mesofauna on types of biotopes are revealed. The multidimensional analysis showed that the greatest contribution to discrimination is made by рН water extract, by silt content, the sum of the exchange bases, by content of physical sand, common nitrogen, total phosphorus, humus and small taxons of soil mesofauna (Lepidoptera, Lithobiidae, Opilionidae, Hemiptera, Staphylinidae, Geotrupinae ). The increase in specific diversity and number of mesopedobionts in the conditions of adaptive and landscape agriculture is established. Physical and chemical properties of soils were similar to that of non - eroded agrogrey forest soils.
