ABSTRACT
This study aimed the determination of nutritional problems of hazelnut (Corylus avellana) grown acid soils in this research. For this purpose, soil and leaf samples were taken from 30 different hazelnut grown area from Trabzon Region. Some physical and chemical properties and some nutrient element contents of soil and leaf samples were determined. This determined values were compered with critical values and the degree of sufficiency were evaluated. According to the results, organic matter, total N, available P, exchangeable K and Mg contents of soil samples were determined sufficient and high, generally. Ca deficiency was obtained in the 93.4% of the soil, because of acid property of the soils. Available Fe, Cu and Mn contents of the soils were determined sufficient. In the 70 % of the soils; Zn deficiency was found. N, P, K, Ca, Mg and Zn deficiency of leaf samples were determined 20.0, 26.7, 6.7, 73.4, 50.0 and 66.7%, respectively. Fe, Cu and Mn contents of leaf samples were determined sufficient.
