Water erosion at three moments in the corn crop, affected by soil tillage and crop sowing methods

Leandro Bochi da Silva Volk, Neroli Pedro Cogo

Apart from the soil tillage system, the soil surface conditions that govern the rainwater erosion process change during growth of the corn crop. At the same time, the physical conditions of the soil surface that govern soil losses are different from those that govern water losses by erosion. The hypothesis of this study is that these changes occurring during the growth of the corn crop reduce soil losses but do not reduce water losses by erosion. Based on that, this […]
