THE GREENING INFLUENCE OF THE VINEYARD ON SOIL PROPERTIES
Abstract
The aim of this three-year study was to determine the effect of different vineyard vegetation cover on organic matter content in the soil, the content of available nutrients and essential soil properties. Soil samples were taken from between rows of vines, where species-diverse mixtures for planting vineyards were sown. For observation, three localities of the Czech Republic with different soil and climatic conditions were chosen (Popice, Mikulov and Znojmo). Two variants of vineyard greening mixes were established: Variant 1 - Diverse/Rich mix and Variant 2 - Dry mix. The obtained results showed a significant increase in soil organic carbon (Corg) and content of available phosphorus through the monitored years. The better rooting ability of mixes increased the soil organic component which is connected with Corg as well as the release of accessible phosphorus into soil solution mainly in 0.15-0.30 m layer. This result is primarily due to increased biological activity in deeper layers of the soil and better rhizosphere function.
