Summary in the original language of the document
The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of conventional and organic farming on soil hydrolytic activity (FDA). The experiment consisted of five-field crop rotation with three organic systems: Org 0 without winter cover crops (as control), Org I with winter cover crops and Org II with winter cover crops plus composted manure; and two conventional farming systems: Conv I as control (no fertiliser use) and Conv II (with mineral N). The results show increase of FDA in all systems in 2013. Within the average of 2012-2014 the FDA is the lowest in Conv. I and the highest in Org II system.
