Physical properties and microbiological activity changes of an alic yellow latosol after cultivation with perennial fruit trees and cassava
01/Dec/1999
This study aimed at evaluating changes in the physical properties of an alic sandy-clay loam Yellow Latosol (Haplortox), located at Cruz das Almas, Bahia, Brazil, cropped for 15 years with banana, 38 years with citrus, 15 years with mango, and 14 years with cassava, compared with soil covered by native forest. In 1991, soil samples were collected for the A, AB, Bw1 and Bw2 horizons and soil bulk density, soil density, macroporosity, microporosity were determined, as well as the distribution […]
