“…The study of Ortiz et al. (2019), for example, found a higher diversity in integrated crop–livestock systems in relation to both forestry systems (assessed during winter) and crop systems under no tillage (assessed during summer).…”

“…It was present in 15% of the reviewed studies. From this total, half (seven out of 14) have assessed several taxa and the other half have focused on a specific taxon, such as springtails (Machado et al, 2019; Oliveira Filho et al., 2016; Ortiz et al., 2019; Santos, et al., 2018), ants (Crepaldi et al., 2014), beetles (Pompeo et al., 2017) and earthworms (Simioni et al., 2016). Springtail morphotyping, an alternative to traditional taxonomy, was proven to be an efficient tool to assess soil biological quality in integrated crop–livestock systems.…”

Integrated crop–livestock–forest is a promising strategy to improve soil quality. It comprises four different integrated farming systems: crop–livestock, crop–forest, forest–livestock and crop–livestock–forest. This work systematically reviewed studies about integrated crop–livestock–forest systems and soil quality. A total of 92 papers were retrieved from the Web of Science—Clarivate Analytics platform, and the following information was analysed: publication year, institution, region of the studied site, type of integrated system, soil type, tillage system, maximum soil depth and the soil quality indicators assessed. Most studies were published in the second half of the 2010s. Brazil is a prominent focus of research about soil quality and integrated crop–livestock–forest systems, with significant contribution from its central and southern regions. The Embrapa was the main publishing institution, present in over one‐third of the studies. Crop–livestock was the most common integrated system, Ferralsols was the most common soil group, and most of the studied soils were clayey. No tillage was the main tillage system. Most studies focused on the topsoil, assessing physical and/or chemical soil quality indicators. More emphasis on biological indicators of soil quality is required, as well as assessments integrating biological, physical and chemical indicators of soil quality. Future works should compare different integrated systems, including assessments deeper in the soil profile, especially in systems with the forest component, and also in sandy and silty soils. Soil quality indicators that have been rarely used should be further tested. Novel indicators should be added to better understand the promotion of soil quality by integrated crop–livestock–forest systems.

“…Sampling was carried out in the winter (May 2013). The sampling took place at that time based on studies of the diversity of the edaphic fauna when, mainly, the richness of many arthropods show differences across land use systems (Machado, Oliveira Filho, Santos, Paulino, & Baretta, 2019; Ortiz et al, 2019; Pompeo et al, 2017; Rosa et al, 2015; Rosa, Santos, Brescovit, Mafra, & Baretta, 2018a, 2018b; Santos et al, 2018). In each system, using the three municipalities as true replicates (n = 3), nine points (central point) in a sampling grid (centered in a 1 ha plot) were georeferenced, distanced 30 m from each other and 20 m of border.…”

Tillage systems in conservation agriculture such as no‐tillage (NT) and crop‐livestock integration (CLI) have been proposed to limit the negative impacts of intensive agriculture. Soil organisms such as Collembola are good indicators because they respond to a variety of environmental and ecological factors and their community structure indicates a change in land management. In this study, we propose to assess the relationships between springtail biodiversity in management systems with a history of NT and CLI. For both management systems, nine points were sampled, distributed in a 30 × 30 m sampling grid, in three municipalities on the Southern Santa Catarina Plateau, Brazil. Springtails were collected using a metal cylinder (5 cm diameter × 5 cm deep) and identified at the species level. At the same point, samples were collected to evaluate soil properties (chemical, physical and microbiological). In total, 538 individuals were collected, distributed in 24 species, 293 individuals (18 species) in NT and 245 individuals (17 species) in the CLI system. Soil management systems studied did not affect the total number of individuals and richness. The NT system had a greater association with epigeic species, while the CLI system was more associated with hemiedaphic and edaphic species, which is related to the site‐specific differences in soil conditions. In both soil management systems, the species were influenced by a range of soil properties. The species Isotomurus sp. 1 and Lepidocyrtus sp. 1 were more influenced by soil properties in the NT system, while the species Proisotoma sp. 1, Sminthurinus sp. 1 and Tullbergia antarctica were more influenced by soil properties in the CLI system, compared to the others. Collembola community structure and species diversity were modified by the soil management systems. Our results suggest that the Collembola community may indicate changes across land management systems in conservation agriculture.

“…There is an association between springtails with soil fertility since they are positively correlated with pH, base saturation, phosphorus, and organic matter (Figure 2A). According to Ortiz et al (2019), land use systems with less acidic pH, application of organic fertilizers, and maintenance of cultural residues between winter and summer crops favor the presence of organisms of the fauna of the soil, as the springtails, because there are refuges, different alimentary resources which influenced the microbial biomass that serves as food for the springtails.…”

“…Springtails and mites were positively correlated with soil porosity (Figure 2A). The porous soil system is a consequence of soil structure, which can be affected by biological processes such as the digging activity of soil organisms and the tangle of particles caused by root growth and fungal hyphae (Ortiz et al, 2019).…”

Farmers' local knowledge about soil quality and management practices should be considered to assess the impact of agricultural technology packages on the environmental performance of agro-ecosystems. This study aimed to evaluate the soil quality under agroecological production in southern Brazil, which was considered of good quality by the farmers' perception. From August to November 2017, ten farms from Liberdade settlement were visited, and semi-structured interviews were conducted to collect information about soil and agricultural knowledge. “What does good quality soil mean? What cares for preserve soil quality? Does the soil location in landscape influence conservation practices?” were the questions asked. In May 2018, soil samples were collected from each area, and chemical, physical, and biological attributes were determined. All farmers mentioned the organic matter indicated good soil quality; however, the study showed that most soils have low content, a consequence of the annual tillage adopted by all farmers for the implantation of seeds crops; Farmers indicated that a good quality soil has "life" with the presence of organisms. In our study, a low population of mites and springtails in most areas was observed. Positive farmers’ perception about the organic matter content and soil organism’s presence in their agroecological production areas come from the degradation history of the areas, at the same time that they attribute improvements in soil quality due to the actions adopted over the 10 years of agroecological production.
