A pot experiment with maize is carried out on a pseudopodzolic soil (District Planosol) at different levels of soil acidity neutralization with lime material and copper pollution: pH(H2O) - 4,5; 4,9; 6,1; 6,9 and Cu - 0; 100; 300; 900 mg/kg. Acidic and sorption properties of biomass are studied as criteria for evaluation maize adaptability to a combined effect of soil pH and copper toxicity. A correlation between copper content in the soil and plants is presented.
