The laboratory was created in 1953 as a component to the Institute <strong>of</strong> Pedology, Agrochemistry and Soil<br />

Protection (IPASP). Its main research domains include the study <strong>of</strong> soils’ ameliorative capacities, water<br />

quality for irrigation purposes and soil salinity. The laboratory staff includes 8 researchers. <strong>Research</strong><br />

results are implemented at the experimental crop fields in commune Cozesti, district Telenesti; commune<br />

Tarigrad, district Drochia; and on the agricultural fields <strong>of</strong> farmers, in different parts <strong>of</strong> <strong>Moldova</strong>.<br />

• Estimation <strong>of</strong> the quality <strong>of</strong> water for irrigation purposes;<br />

• Recover fertility to saline soils;<br />

• Estimation <strong>of</strong> the ameliorative state <strong>of</strong> the plain soils and the adaptability at various utilizations;<br />

• Technologies for normalising soil salinity;<br />

• Measures to prevent and combat the degradation <strong>of</strong> irrigated soils;<br />

• Calculation <strong>of</strong> maximum permissible limits (MPL) <strong>of</strong> wastewater pollutants into the river waters;<br />
