This paper reviews a part of analyses of soils used for production of cabbage in the production fields around the village Futog near Novi Sad, Serbia (Serbia and Montenegro). The analyzed soils are heterogeneous but invariably of light mechanical composition. The top soils have unfavourable water/air properties, low total porosity (from 36.82% to 42.70%) and medium water permeability (from 10E-3 to 10E-5 cm/s). Low humus content (from 1.62% to 2.17%), highly variable phosphorus content (from 6.5 to 107.0 mg/100 g of soil) are common properties of the surface soil layers of all soil profiles studied. Based on the proportion and biodiversity of the studied groups of microorganisms and dehydrogenase activity, it has been concluded that the analyzed soils have a high biological value.
