Grazing intensities can influence soil aggregation, which can be temporarily and permanently affected.

The experiment was initiated in 2001, in a dystrophic Red Latosol, after soybean harvest. Treatments consisted of pasture (black oat + Italian ryegrass) at heights of 10, 20 and 40 cm, grazed by young […]
