The management and tillage change the soil structure, which in turn interferes with a series of physic-hydraulic properties in the surface soil layer. This work had as objective to evaluate chemical and physical-hydraulic soil properties that have implications on soil aggregation, macroporosity, and the available soil water in Red Latosol (Oxisol), either cropped under no-tillage or disk plowed for 20 years. The control was a native Cerrado (savannah) vegetation. Because of the absence of soils tillage and reduced machinery traffic, the […]
