Effects of sustainable management of Caatinga under physical attributes of the soil

The objective of this work was to evaluate the soil quality in areas of Caatinga under different management systems, with soil physical attributes as parameters. The forms of management adopted were: (1) area of sustainable management of Caatinga; (2) area of conventional management; and (3) native forest area. After 5 years, soil samples were collected in the areas at depths 0.00-0.20 m and 0.20-0.40 m for analysis of soil physical attributes. The results evidenced greater soil compaction in the area of conventional management. The sustainable management of Caatinga proved to be a promising technique for maintaining and recovering the soil physical properties.
