Organic Matter and Soil Fertility in Different Successional Stages of Seasonal Semidecidual Forest

Abstract: The accumulation and transformation of organic matter in the soil are fundamental for the maintenance and improvement of the chemical, physical, and biological attributes of the soil, and consequently, for the tropical forests functioning. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of secondary forests with different successional stages on soil organic matter, carbon and nitrogen stocks, and soil fertility. Three areas of seasonal semideciduous forest, located in Pinheiral - RJ, with different s… Show more

“…Pasture sites were shown to have the highest soil bulk density, attributed to long-term grazing by cattle and horses at a stocking rate of 1.30 animal units ha −1 . Machado et al (2019) evaluated the soil bulk density in three areas of Seasonal Semideciduous Forest, with different successional stages (initialstage forest -ISF, medium-stage forest -MSF, and advanced stage forest -ASF), located in areas of the middle third of slopes in Pinheiral (RJ). The authors found lower values of bulk density in the ASF area, and these results are due to the constant deposition of plant residues on the soil surface in this area.…”

“…The higher total porosity observed in FFF is probably due to the environmental balance made possible by the lack of anthropogenic disturbances. In addition, the contribution of soil organic matter and biological activity in the soil aggregation process is added, as reported by Machado et al (2019) and Toru et al (2019).…”

“…Soil organic matter also plays an essential role in increasing water availability in the soil, maintaining soil fertility, as the leading supplier of N and other nutrients for plant growth (Asbur and Ariyanti, 2017). The research of Machado et al, (2019) states that the accumulation and transformation of organic matter in the soil is significant in improving the soil's chemical, physical, and biological properties. The increase in soil organic matter will increase the growth of cultivated plants due to increased available water capacity, nutrient supply, soil structure and other physical properties (Asbur and Ariyanti, 2017).…”

“…These results may be explained by soil management for enhancing pH and controlling toxic elements (Barros, 2013;Melo et al, 2017). In addition, deposition of organic residues tends to increase SOM content as well as hydrogen cation release by the action of soil organic acids formed (Machado et al, 2019). P levels in O40G2, O60, O60G1, and O60G2 were significantly higher than those in forest but similar to those in haying, probably due to P fertilization and nutrient cycling enabled by deposited organic residues (Piano et al, 2017).…”
