Journal of Water and Land Development. No. 17 p. 61–67 Abstract Detailed information about the water and physical properties of irrigated soils in the Massif of Mugan- -Salyan is given in the paper. Results of the study showed differences in the soil properties. The field water ca- pacity of soil in the zone was 25.32–30.30% or 1.26–1.56 g·cm–3, particle density was 2.53–2.88 g·cm–3, porosity – 44.16–54.20%; clay content – 22.54–70.10% and the velocity of soaking the soil with water ranged between 9.24 and 55.84 cm·h–1. Such variability of the indices points to a need for reclamation measures in the soils.
