The aim of the study was to evaluate sorption properties (total acidity – TA, sum of base exchangeable cations – BEC, cation exchange capacity of soil – CEC, index of soil saturation with base cations – BS, and base exchangeable cations - Ca2+, Mg2+, K+, Na+) in 36 arable soils profiles (Dystric Cambisols, Luvisols, Gleysols, Endogleyic Cambisols) of Siedlce upland. In the investigated soils a variation in the sorption properties was observed, and the properties were characteristic for mineral soils formed from the boulder and fluvioglacial deposits of the Middle Polish glacial. The highest values of total acidity were determined in the humus horizons (Ap, AE), and the highest values the sum of base exchangeable cations, cation exchange capacity of soil, and the index of soil saturation with base cations – in the enriched horizons (Bbr, Bt) and the parent rock ones (C, Cgg, CG).The content of the base exchangeable cations in these soils could be presented in the order of decreasing values: Ca2+> Mg2+> K+> Na+. The mean percentage contribution of Ca2+, Mg2+, K+ in cation ex-change capacity of investigated soils increased, and contribution of Na+ decreased with the depth of the soil profiles. Statistical analysis proved that the sorption properties of analysed soils significantly depended on organic carbon content (Corg), clay fraction (ø< 0.002 mm), and soil reaction.
