Abstract
The results of the regional soil survey conducted in 1983 (scale 1:50000) were compared with the data obtained during the agrochemical survey in 2016. It was found that classification soil map are poorly connected with the modern agrochemical status of cultivated soils. However, archival maps can serve as a valuable source of information about the former state of the territory.
