Abstract: Among other forms, iron contained in soil is a component of magnetic minerals, both primary and secondary ones, produced by various soil forming processes. The composition of the soil magnetic fraction, characterised by a magnetic susceptibility, is the consequence of its origin. The character of susceptibility changes along the analysed chernozems’ profiles indicates a similarity of the parent rock, as well as the pedogenic processes forming the chernozems from the territories of Poland and the Ukraine. The influence of anthropogenic factors could be seen in the increased susceptibility within the humus horizon of the degraded chernozem.
