Resumo -Os sistemas agroflorestais são uma alternativa sustentável de produção agropecuária. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a qualidade de um solo sob sistema agroflorestal, mediante a quantificação dos seguintes atributos físicos do solo: densidade, porosidade, resistência à penetração e estabilidade dos agregados. O solo sob sistema agroflorestal apresentou qualidade superior, quando comparado ao mesmo solo cultivado em sistema convencional, apresentando menor densidade, maior porosidade, menor resistência à penetração e maior agregação.Termos para indexação: densidade, porosidade, compactação, agregação do solo, agrofloresta. Physical features of soil quality under an agroforestry systemAbstract -Agroforestry systems seem to be a sustainable alternative for agricultural production. The objective of this work was to evaluate the quality of a soil used under an agroforestry system by the quantification of the following soil physical attributes: density, porosity, resistance to penetration and aggregate stability. The soil under agroforestry exhibited a superior quality compared to the same soil cultivated by a conventional system, reflected by smaller soil density, higher porosity, lesser resistance to penetration and higher aggregate stability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
