The adoption of no-till instead of reduced tillage does not improve some soil quality parameters in Argentinean Pampas
(Elsevier Science, 2016-02)
No-till (NT) has been recognized worldwide as a more suitable system than tillage for enhancing soil quality. However, several concerns remain about its conservative nature, especially when it is performed either without ...
Vegetation influence on soil quality in a highly degraded tropical soilInfluencia de la vegetación sobre la calidad de un suelo tropical degradado
(University of Puerto Rico Mayagüez Campus Agricultural Experiment Station, 2004)
Quantification of the soil physical quality of a tropical oxisol using the s index
(Universidade de São Paulo, 2008-01)
Soil physical quality is fundamental for the sustainability of agro ecosystems. Soil physical quality assessment must be developed using parameters that describe physical behavior. S, a new soil physical parameter has ...
Soil erodibility and quality of volcanic soils as affected by pine plantations in degraded rangelands of NW Patagonia
(Springer, 2016-05)
NW Patagonia in Argentina has high potential for planting fast-growing exotic conifers, supported by its volcanic soils. Nonetheless, many aspects related to the effects of pine plantations on soil are still unknown. We ...
Soil stabilisation by water repellency under no-till management for soils with contrasting mineralogy and carbon quality
(Elsevier, 2019-08-23)
No-till soil management is common around the globe, but the impacts on soil structural quality varies depending on cropping practice and inherent soil properties. This study explored water repellency as a driver of soil ...
Evaluation of soil degradation produced by rice crop systems in a Vertisol, using a soil quality index
(2017-03)
One of the priorities of land planners is the development of methodologies that allow the detection of negative impacts on soils. The objective of this work was to evaluate the impact of rice production systems that use ...
Soil erodibility and quality of volcanic soils as affected by pine plantations in degraded rangelands of NW Patagonia
(2016-08)
NW Patagonia in Argentina has high potential for planting fast-growing exotic conifers, supported by its volcanic soils. Nonetheless, many aspects related to the effects of pine plantations on soil are still unknown. We ...
Field assessment of soil biological and chemical quality in response to crop management practices
(Springer, 2008-11-19)
Soil microbiological and chemical aspects were evaluated to determine the effects of conservation tillage and crop rotation on soil fertility over a 16-year period. A field trial was established to compare two cropping ...
Microbiological and biochemical indicators for assessing soil quality in drylands from Patagonia
(Springer, 2016)
The development of monitoring programs to diagnose the state of soils and prevent their deterioration requires the identification of soil quality indicators. Although several parameters serve this purpose, microbiological ...
Effect of glyphosate application on soil quality and health under natural and zero tillage field conditions
(Soil Science Society of Pakistan, 2017-11)
Agriculture is a primary source of income in several countries, including Argentina. Among the many agrochemicals used, glyphosate-based herbicides raised controversy, encouraging research to clarify if the benefits of ...
