Characteristics and classification of rice-growing soils in La Palma, Pinar del Río
Main Article Content
Abstract
characteristics of six soil profiles from La Palma, Pinar del Rio,
cultivated with rice are studied in this paper. Soils proved to be
affected by gleyzation process and have an unfavorable A
horizon structure. At the same time, as a result of rice growth,
there is an anthropic horizon named hydragric in two of these
profiles. Besides, the six soil profiles are classified by Cuban
system, as well as those of World Reference Base and Soil
Taxonomy. The two first soil classifications were correctly
applied; however, Soil Taxonomy could not be applied to soils
having an anthropic horizon.
