Soil mechanical resistance to penetration (SMRP) in an Oxisol under different integrated crop/livestock systems (CLS)

Soil mechanical resistance to penetration (SMRP) in an Oxisol under different integrated crop/livestock systems (CLS)

The high values of SMRP indicate reduction of soil water infiltration and high levels of soil erosion. Integrated CLS include forest and pastures. The SMRP of soils managed with CLS can be affected by cattle trampling (Fontaneli et al., 2010). However, by taking advantage of the fertilizers residues applied in annual crops, pastures cropped in these systems have greater vegetative growth and root, which may favor the mitigation effect of trampling. The forest dry leaves and living roots can increase the SOM of these systems, improving soil structure.
