Characteristics of Soil Parameters of Agricultural Land Use Types, Their Location and Development Forecast
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
The topic is relevant for agriculture and land management. Additionally, the thematic context of the study is interesting with practical implications in (future) land uses.
There are some questions to be considered:
- The introduction should be improved in order to explain the necessity of this job. The objectives should be explained (line 44-48) better. I think that the Line 378 ("One objetive of this paper...") should be included in the introduction.
- Conclusions - In general terms, this part is almost a summary of the results. You should improve this part to show that what you obtained (Results) is important for (future) Land management and why.
Just few thing to correct:
Line 48 : "...Geographic information systems tools (ArcGIS) tools were..."
Line 66 : 0.27 ha instead of 0,27.
Line 196 : Delete the full stop at the end of the sentence.
Line 238 : 7-12º instead of 7-12o
Line 325: Table 7: 17.4 instead of 17,4
Line 554 : 1981 (bold).

Reviewer 2 Report
General comments
The idea of the paper is of great interest. The article is based on a large amount of data and its preparation required a lot of work. The value of the work is that it presents research for the whole country. Nevertheless, the authors should make sure that the goals are clearly presented in one part of the work. I suggest that the title of the article should also include the aspect of the prognostic studies conducted.
It would also be more appropriate for the discussion to be related to the results of the research in the possible broad context, and to refer to the previous studies rather than focus on the methods used.
Specific comments:
Line 111 – translate into English
Figure 5 – you should increase the readability of the presented results.
