Light soils contain up to 20 % clay particles, which results in their high water and nutrient permeability and thus low fertility. Another factor affecting light soils is their easy drying. The Hodov locality was chosen for an experiment suitable in terms of quite low rainfall per year and soil type corresponding to light soils. The experimental locality Hodov belongs to a slightly warm climate region (MT9) with a long-term average rainfall of 500 mm/year. The prevailing soil type is Mesobasic Cambisol with a high...
