AB  - For an agricultural region such as the Vojvodina Province in northern Serbia, soil quality
monitoring is very important. Enzymatic activities are proposed as good indicators as they respond to even the slightest changes in the soil. This study aimed to analyze the enzymatic activity levels across three different soil types in Vojvodina and to examine their connection to soil chemical properties and land use. All soil types (chernozem, vertisol, solonchak) were sampled at nine locations, each with 3 field plots. The activities of acid and alkaline phosphatase, β-glucosidase, dehydrogenase, and catalase were measured in samples, as well as the selected chemical properties. Results showed differences in enzymatic activity across different soil types and land use. The most active enzymes in vertisol were acid phosphatase and β-glucosidase; in solonchak, it was alkaline phosphatase; in chernozem, it was dehydrogenase. A high correlation between enzymatic activities and certain soil chemical properties (pH reaction, organic matter, organic carbon, total nitrogen) was also observed, underlining the existence of a relationship between different soil components. The highest determined correlation was between acid phosphatase and pH (r=-0.7), alkaline phosphatase and total nitrogen (r=0.7), and organic matter (r=0.72); the obtained correlations were found to be statistically significant.

AB  - Land consolidation (LC) is an important tool for the improvement of
agriculture and rural development, which also includes environmental issues in most of the countries in Europe. This paper presents the most important results of the environmental impact assessment (EIA) of land consolidation, conducted in the municipality of Vršac through a pilot project based on the EU methodology set within the project: “Strengthening Municipal Land Management in Serbia”, supported by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH. During the summer of 2018, field survey was carried out at 90 locations, documenting the natural, semi-natural and man-made landscape
elements of ecological or cultural values, assessing their quality and estimating the potential harmful environmental impacts of the land consolidation. The already existing negative impacts of intensive agriculture were also registered, such as abandonment or overgrazing of pastures and meadows, converting grasslands into arable land, soil erosion and habitat fragmentation. Although the area of LC is without natural forest and extremely poor in semi-natural elements of rural landscape, the existing entities were revealed as refuges for
protected species. Some of the grassland fragments belonged to protected habitat types. The final categorization of the landscape elements was conducted in three levels. Category I landscape elements had to remain undisturbed; Category II landscape elements could be removed with obligatory ecological compensation, while the Category III landscape elements could be removed without environmental compensation. Recommendations were given
pointing out the possibilities for improving the environmental characters of the area by the land consolidation process.
AB  - U većini zemalja u Evropi komasacija zemljišta (KZ) predstavlja važnu meru za unapređenje poljoprivrede i ruralnog razvoja, uključujući pitanja životne sredine,. U ovom radu predstavljeni su najvažniji rezultati procene uticaja komasacije na životnu sredinu (EIA) u Opštini Vršac kroz pilot projekat zasnovan na metodologiji EU postavljenoj u okviru projekta: “Strengthening Municipal Land Management in Serbia”, uz podršku Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH. Tokom leta 2018. godine sprovedeno je terensko istraživanje prirodnih, poluprirodnih i veštačkih elemenata predela, ekoloških i kulturnih vrednosti na 90 lokacija. Urađena je procena stanja ovih vrednosti i procena potencijalnih štetnih uticaja komasacije na životnu sredinu. Osmotreni su negativni uticaji intenzivne poljoprivrede, kao što su: napuštanje ili prekomerna ispaša pašnjaka i livada, njihovo pretvaranje u obradivo zemljište, erozija zemljišta i fragmentacija prirodnih staništa. Iako je područje KZ bez prirodne šume i izuzetno siromašno prirodnim elementima ruralnog pejzaža, postojeće celine su otkrivene kao utočišta za zaštićene vrste. Neki od fragmenata travne vegetacije pripadali su zaštićenim tipovima staništa. Konačna kategorizacija elemenata pejzaža sprovedena je u tri nivoa. Elementi predela I kategorije – koji ostaju nenarušeni (ne smeju se uklanjati); II kategorija – elementi pejzaža neutralnog karaktera sa obaveznom ekološkom kompenzacijom; III kategorija – elementi pejzaža koji se uklanjaju bez ekološke naknade. Date su preporuke kojima se ukazuje na mogućnosti za poboljšanje ekoloških karakteristika područja procesom komasacije.
