abstract: Field experiment was conducted in 2002-2004 on sandy soil, considered a good rye complex. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of drip irrigation and nitrogen fertilization on the chemical composition of the 0-25 cm soil layer. The studies concerned the soil reaction, content of available P, K, Mg, Ca, C-organic, N-total and N-NO3, N-NH4. Both irrigation and nitrogen fertilization modified the content of elements in soil. Drip irrigation increased the soil acidity, content of organic C, Mg, N-NO3 and decreased the content of total-N, N-NH4, P, K and Ca. However, nitrogen fertilization (120 kg.N-1) increased the content of all forms of nitrogen (N total, N-NO3, N-NH4), P, Ca, Mg and decreased the content of C-organic and K in the soil.
