Abstract
Among the soils, which until now have not been involved in food production are pseudogleys. These are compacted soils that are not suitable for treatment without the use of permaculture. In field study we monitored selected areas of soils and found a significant effect of permaculture in pseudogleys. We have found that all physical properties of the soils are improved, in particular the structure, consistency, aeration, organic matter content and retention capacity. Pseudogleys are very common type of soils at the turn of hilly areas in the plains which are densely populated areas, so they can be an important natural resource for food production.
