Abstract
Land suitability evaluation is the process of predicting land capacity for different uses based on its characteristics. This research has been conducted taking into account seven soil profiles, with the aim of land suitability evaluation for irrigated wheat in an area of 116 hectares Land in Kabul University. In order to carry out this research, the Square root and Storie methods related to the parametric approach based on FAO guideline Concerning soil and slope requirements of crop presented by sys et al. (1993) were utilized. Parameters such as calcium carbonate, organic matter, texture, depth, coarse fragments, EC and soil pH were used for land suitability evaluation. Results showed that profiles 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 had no restrictions for wheat cultivation and were found to be highly suitable (S1). Due to high and undesirable pH, the 2nd profile was found to be moderately suitable (S2).
