Management zones based on corn yield and soil physical attributes
The need to increase the yield and thus the income of farmers and provide food for the growing population requires the search for more efficient and innovative ways for growing, such as management by zones or site-specific practices. This knowledge improves the process of decision making in agricultural production for better crop management. The aim of

SPATIALIZATION OF SOIL CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES IN AN AGROFORESTRY SYSTEM, SEROPÉDICA, BRAZIL [PDF]
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to spatialize the chemical and physical attributes of the soil in an agroforestry system in Seropédica, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Thirty-one soil samples were collected from 0-10 cm, 10-20 cm, and 20-40 cm depths, and each sampling point was georeferenced.
