The aim of the research is to examine the chemical composition and soil quality parameters of the soil sample collected from the 39°48'20.8"N and 35°53'44.0"E locations of Yozgat Bulgurlu Village in Turkey. After the soil sample was dried at room temperature, it was sieved by wetting it with 10 and 60 mesh sieves, respectively. The chemical content of the soil sample was determined by an X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) Spectroscopy as 40.98% silicon oxide (SiO2), 13.27% aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and 11.04% calcium oxide (CaO). Copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), chromium (Cr), manganese (Mn) and lead (Pb) metal concentrations in the soil sample were determined using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS). The pH, lime, saturation values and the amount of organic and inorganic matter of the soil sample were examined. In order to determine the morphological characteristics of the soil sample, color imaging was performed and the soil structure was examined with Stereo microscopy. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that the soil sample was heavy red clay, slightly alkaline, unsalted, calcareous, high in potassium and very low in organic matter and phosphorus.
