Increasing pasture biomass production through nitrogen fertilization enables greater
stocking rate and grazing intensification in pastoral livestock production systems. However …

The expansion of dairy farming in southern Brazil, mainly under a rotational grazing system,
has generated soil physical changes with loss of soil quality, which in turn must be …

In recent years, numerous studies have addressed the theme of ecosystem services as a
means of promoting the protection, sustainable use, and recovery of ecosystems. However …

The objective of this work was to evaluate soybean cultivation in a hydromorphic or
nonhydromorphic soil, with or without supplemental irrigation. Field experiments were …

In semiarid environments, it is possible to verify the fragility of soils in terms of decomposition
of soil organic matter (SOM) and changes in physicochemical attributes. The objective of this …

Avaliar a qualidade do solo (QS) é uma importante estratégia para definir práticas e
sistemas de manejo capazes de manter ou melhorar a sustentabilidade dos sistemas …

Rice monoculture in lowlands can cause problems for management practices in crop fields,
for example, in weed control. For this reason, corn in rotation with irrigated rice in lowlands …

The soil precompression stress (σ p) has been used as an estimator of the soil load bearing
capacity, but a few researches have evaluated the correspondence to each other. In this …

The saturated soil hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) exhibits high spatial variability due to the
various physical, chemical, and biological processes that act simultaneously with different …

Abstract Changes in land use in riverside ecosystems added to the flood and ebb regimes of
rivers modify the spatial variability of the physical–mechanical attributes of soil, making it …
