The aim was to evaluate the effect of subsurface drip irrigation with sugarcane cultivars, contrasting in the responsiveness to irrigation, in the aggregation of Oxisol clayey. The experiment was conducted in a clayey ...

The type of tillage and crop systems used can either degrade or cause a recovery of the structure of agricultural soils. The objective of this study was to determine the structural stability of the soil using mean weight ...

Decomposition of plant material influences soil aggregation dynamics in ways that are still poorly understood, especially for Oxisols, in which oxides are believed to play a dominant role. In an incubation experiment, we ...

This study assessed the elasto-plastic behaviour of soil aggregates and of the soil matrix in three soils of central Chile in terms of their structural development, clay content and internal tension. Soil samples (cores ...
