Subsoil is the layer of soil under the topsoil on the surface of the ground. The subsoil may include substances such as clay and/or sand that has only been partially broken down by air, sunlight, water, wind etc., to produce true soil. Below the subsoil is the substratum [= podłoże], which can be residual bedrock, sediments, or aeolian deposits, largely unaffected by soil-forming factors active in the subsoil.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subsoil

warstwa orna = topsoil
Topsoil is the upper, outermost layer of soil, usually the top 2 inches (5.1 cm) to 8 inches (20 cm).
