Abstract :In this study the macromorphological, physical and chemical properties of organic soils around Ereğli- Konya were determined According the results the pedogenesis processes of this soils were determined and all the selected profiles were classified according the soil taxonomy at the sub groub level. According the result obtained that, the parent materials of organic soils of the research area have formed on the flat area, organic material accumulation was affected typically by the topographic state of the area and hydroulic conditions and consequently the area has the properties of basin organic soils and shows eutropic character. The material represented 1st profile of the selected four represantative profiles on the research area was classified as typic sülfihemist while the material represented 2nd and 3rd profiles as luvaquentic medihemist at the subgroub level. The 4th profile was also classified as fibric medihemist at the subgroub level.
