To investigate possibilities of improving the properties of arenosol, the alkali black loamy sand, a field experiment was conducted in which different amounts of phosphogypsum, manure and peat have been combined with conventional cultivation practices. Adsorption capacity is an important indicator of soil fertility the value of which mostly depends on organic matter content and the amount and type of clay minerals. The paper presents the results of the study of the effect of ameliorating practices on adsorption capacity in arenosol. The contents of clay, clay + silt 0.02 mm and humus were also determined. The results indicate that the ameliorating practices increased adsorption capacity. It was also found that the adsorption capacity value was chiefly dependent on the mineral components of the soil.
