In the present thesis, the change in the quality of the aggregates of different soil classes (>2 mm, 2.0 – 1.0 mm, 1.0 – 0.25 mm, 0.25 – 0.053 mm and <0.053 mm) is investigated based on the use of the soil over time.The two soils selected for examination are from vineyard and olive growing areas and for their evaluation the simplified method of wet sieving was followed to isolate the aggregates. It is important to emphasize that these soils have been cultivated with different frequency, as they are either fallow or continuously cultivated.More specifically, it was examined vine cultivation soil that is continuously cultivated, soil that was left fallow for one year, soil in fallow for ten years and finally for fifty years, while correspondingly the soil of olive cultivation was examined for continuous cultivation every year and for one year in fallow. In conclusion, based on literature sources and previous measurements, the liquid sieving method was evaluated for its unsuitability in cases as complex as that of the soil and we were led to the conclusion that it represented large percentagesof the total mass (≥50%).
