Il libro analizza l'uso del suolo per il pascolo in Brasile, evidenziando la sostituzione delle foreste con aree pascolive e la gestione inadeguata che minaccia la produttività del suolo. Propone un metodo per valutare la qualità dei pascoli degradati, confrontando percezioni e analisi fisiche del suolo.
Analysis of grazing by visual indicators using soil physical and chemical analyses
Focusing on the degradation of pastureland in Brazil, the book explores the impact of inadequate management on soil productivity and sustainability. It presents a method for analyzing degraded pastures by comparing evaluators' perceptions with soil structure responses, specifically through the geometric mean diameter of aggregates (GAD) and physical quality indices. The study is conducted on a yellow-red argissolo in Santo Antônio de Posse, SP, highlighting the importance of pasture quality assessment for effective management and environmental protection.
