Abstract
Seven soil profiles represent the soils of Wadi EI-Farigh were chosen for this study. This study indicated that soil texture of the studied area was gravelly sand to sandy clay loam. Some of the studied soils contained calcic and gypsic horizons and was classified as Typic Torriorthents, Typic Haplocalcids , Typic Torripsamments and Typic Haplogysids .
Also the studied soils were evaluated as (S2) moderately Suitable and (S3) which was the marginally class of the suitable order (S). Whereas, some studied soils were classified as non-suitable (N) according to Sys and Verheye method of land evaluation.
