Compilation of land evaluation open scales of Mountain Shirvan cadastral district and their distribution by land plots

Data are provided on assessing the soil fertility in one district of Azerbaijan. When conducting a qualitative assessment of the lands of the Mountain Shirvan cadastral district, we relied on methodological guidelines that were developed for this area. To calculate the quality score of soil varieties, correction factors were used for the degree of their salinity, alkalinity, erosion, cultural state, etc. The main, detailed and final quality scales were compiled, the weighted average scores and the coefficient of comparative merit of the quality of lands in a given territory were calculated. Based on the results of calculations, open scales of land quality in the Mountain Shirvan cadastral district and their distribution among land plots were compiled. Correction coefficients for various soil characteristics are presented in the work.
