Soil is in a steady state under natural conditions, but an inadequate management can cause degradation, mainly of the organic matter, impairing the sustainability of agricultural systems. The present study was undertaken in a six-year-old field experiment on a typic Hapludalf (Red Yellow Podzolic Soil), at the Department of Soil Science, UFSM, Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil, to evaluate the effects of plant successions on soil nitrogen dynamics, under no tillage system. The plant successions used were […]
