The impact of 50-year-old forest plantations on the properties of postagrogenic segregational chernozems (postagrogenic Haplic Chernozems) in the steppe Crimea has been studied. The effect depends on the environmental conditions and tree species. Deep soils in the lower part of a wide hollow under the plantations of Pseudotsuga menziesii and Gymnocladus dioicus are characterized by a significant increase in the content and stock of Corg and Ntot, a decrease in the bulk density, a greater thickne
