Designation of Local Varieties in the Hungarian Soil Classification System: Remarks from a Viewpoint of Land Evaluation Application
This paper examines the information transfer of soil taxonomic classification units of the Hungarian
soil classification from the viewpoint of land productivity evaluation applications. For this purpose statistical
analyses of a national soil and plant production database (with 80000 entries) have been applied.
Results show that soil groupings both in taxonomic and productivity classifications may be incorrect in some
cases. Taxonomic misclassification can occur at higher levels of soil classification. With only the general purpose
classification of soil characteristics in lower level taxonomic units major interpretive information loss can
occur.
