This research was carried out to determine the effect of different usage conditions of agricultural areas on physical properties of soil in Çınar district of Diyarbakır province. For this purpose, a total of 15 points were taken as 5 samples from each of the agricultural areas used in three different ways (dry, pastureland, irrigated). Texture, pH, EC, lime, organic matter, bulk density, hydraulic conductivity and aggregate stability were analyzed in soil samples. According to the findings, it was found that the region is heavily textured in terms of textures, and that the irrigated and dry agriculture areas of the cultivated agriculture were sufficient in terms of organic matter. While there was no difference between the organic and organic matter content of the soils, hydraulic conductivity and pH, there was no significant difference between dry and watery sampling points. Since the pH values of the soils are determined at the level of alkaline and alkaline levels, it can be problematic in time. Significant differences have been achieved between the use of soils and porosity, bulk density and aggregate stability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
