Abstract

Proper soil management interferes in the result of the installed crop. The knowledge of the positive and/or negative influence on the production systems is essential to improve the physical, chemical and biological quality of the soil and, for that, there are some attributes that act as indicators of soil quality. Practices carried out improperly will result in problems in soil structure, such as compaction, lack of availability of water and air in the soil and for plants, soil loss among others. Some properties as soil porosity, aggregation, compaction, water infiltration are used to measure soil quality. Given this, the use of these attributes as indicators is of utmost importance for excellent productivity, since management practices can directly influence the development of plants.
