EFEITOS DOS SISTEMAS DE CULTIVO E MANEJO DA CAATINGA ATRAVÉS DA ANÁLISE DOS INDICADORES QUIMICOS DE QUALIDADE DO SOLO NA PRODUÇÃO AGRÍCOLA EM APODI, RN
Abstract
The sustainable management of savanna reduces the devastation of semiarid and aims based agricultural guided by systematic principles of agroecology. In that connection we evaluated the effects of cropping systems and management of savanna through the analysis of chemical indicators of soil quality in agricultural production in Apodi, RN. . The systems were evaluated: 1 - management area of savanna with 5 (five) years (MAS5), 2 - management area of savanna with 7 (seven) years (MAS7), 3 - conventional system (CSA) and 4 - native forest (NF). The chemical analysis revealed that the management of savanna for five to seven years is a beneficial way contributed to conservation of soil.
