“…On the other hand, the root biomass of grasses used in soil under SP and CLS, mainly in winter season, can have also influenced the highest aggregates stability in these areas, and consequently contributed to the higher MWD values, as well as in the adequate BD and Ma values in the different soil layers ( Table 3). The positive action of grasses, which culminated in similar MWD, BD and Ma values among areas under conservation management were also observed by Lanzanova et al (2007), Aratani et al (2009), Spera et al (2009), Batista et al (2013) and Borges et al (2016).…”

Crop-livestock system (CLS) based on summer crops, as soybean and corn, in rotation with oat+ryegrass pasture in winter for dairy products, is the most adopted productive system at the southern region of Paraná, Brazil. Although its management needs to be evaluated, in order to improve its sustainability. In this sense, this study aimed to measure the impacts of management practices of five smallholder farms on soil quality, considering the soil use history. Soil samples were collected to determine soil bulk density (BD), macroporosity (Ma), microporosity (Mi), weighted mean diameter (WMD) in each area under CLS, summer pasture and native forest, as a control. Areas under CLS altered soil physical attributes (higher BD and Mi and lower Ma) in relation to the non-anthropized area as a consequence of animal trampling. However, the conservationist management adopted, with the soil cover maintenance along with years of minimum tillage, the use of grasses with aggressive roots along with the winter period, did not culminate in limitations of soil functions. Soil structure dynamics needs to be investigated to better determine the biological and physical influence on the formation of soil aggregation.
