Abstract

The article discusses a complex survey conducted in Kakheti pastures. Cinnamonic carbonate and raw carbonate soils are spread in the area of the inner Kakheti pastures. Studied soils with heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn) are not contaminated and do not exceed the maximum permissible concentration (MPC). In case of Arashenda village, the process of erosion and degradation is under the medium risk level. In Gombori and Shakhvetila villages the risk of degradation and erosion is relatively high.
