Electrical conductivity (EC), pH, concentration of Na, K, Ca, Mg, and their reciprocal relations were analysed in the soil solutions from soils on goose farms. The aim of the studies was to state in what way gees influence the above-mentioned solution properties. Soil samples were collected from two farms located in southern and eastern Poland. Soil samples from outside the farms, but similar to the soils where geese are held, constituted the control material. Soil was taken from the whole thickness of each genetic horizon. Soil solution was obtained by centrifugation, following 48 hours soil incubation at field capacity moisture. It was stated that goose manure could increase the soil solution pH value but the presence of calcium carbonates in a parent rock make that unclear. EC of the soil solutions from humus horizons on both farms was many times as high as in control samples, which correlated significantly with the concentration of alkaline cations. Also, the concentration of basic cations was higher in the solutions from the soil horizons covered by manure
