The role of conservation soil management on soil and water protection at different spatial scales [PDF]

, 2006
Agriculture has a direct impact on the soil environment, altering soil properties, surface characteristics and erosion risk. This has led to a move away from conventional tillage to the adoption of conservation practices, aiming to minimise soil ...

Saving the face of soil aggregates [PDF]

Global Change Biology, 2019
Hierarchy levels and building units of micro- and macroaggregates and related separation methods. The hierarchy levels (left arrow) are inversely related to the energy necessary for the disruption (right arrow).

Formação e estabilização de agregados pelo sistema radicular de braquiária em um Nitossolo Vermelho Formation and stabilization of aggregates by the grass root system in an Oxisol

Ciência Rural, 2012
As gramíneas atuam de maneira direta na formação e na estabilização de agregados do solo, devido à maior densidade de raízes e à liberação de exsudatos orgânicos no solo.

Influence of the integrated crop-livestock system on soil and soybean and brachiaria yield

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2015
The presence of animals in farming areas can affect soil physical structures depending on grazing intensity. This study aimed to evaluate soil physical attributes, as well as soybean and brachiaria yield, under no-tillage, in an integrated crop-livestock

Pearl Millet Genetic Traits Shape Rhizobacterial Diversity and Modulate Rhizosphere Aggregation

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Root exudation contributes to soil carbon allocation and also to microbial C and energy supply, which subsequently impacts soil aggregation around roots. Biologically-driven soil structural formation is an important driver of soil fertility.
