Abstract

Abstract Agricultural activity, especially agricultural mechanization, leads to acceleration of erosion in rolling and hilly country. The level of the erosion process, already during territorial observations, may be assessed by the thickness of the humus horizon. In the vicinity of Bytów, the deluvial humus horizons have even achieved thickness of 100 cm. These horizons are also richer in organic matter than humus horizons located on flat-topped mountains and mountain sides. Deluvial horizons are characterized by a somewhat less acid reaction, sometimes even neutral, and somewhat greater dehydration of the sorption complex by alkaline cations.
