Abstract
In this paper shown different results about the soil salts content in Cuba and its causes. It made a comparison between the traditional method for determining the soluble salts content on a saline soil and the method of saturated paste. The results demonstrate that for the method of saturated paste a content in soluble salts 4-5 higher than in the traditional method. It recommended continue with these studies for make a recommendation to utilize the method of saturated paste, which is, utilized an international level.
