Penetration resistance in a latosol under different moisture and penetration speeds

Abstract: RESUMO Resistência à penetração num Latossolo sob diferentes umidades e velocidades de penetraçãoA resistência do solo à penetração tem sido muito utilizada, para representar seu estado de compactação, e vários autores têm relacionado o índice de cone (IC) com a densidade do solo. Sua importância como fonte de informações para decisões na condução das atividades agrícolas, pecuária e florestal tem-se tornado cada vez maior, o que exige mais conhecimentos a respeito do comportamento dos penetrômetros e penetróg… Show more

“…Regarding the effect of soil moisture ( Figure 1A), it is observed that in all tested compactation levels, the increase of water content resulted in a linear increase in the fresh matter production of the shoot. This linear behavior for all tested soil density levels is related to the fact that moisture levels lower than moisture of the soil field capacity are used and, in these conditions, according to Silveira et al (2010) andMolina Jr. et al (2013), the greater the water content, the less the soil resistance to root growth, which favored the development of the shoot ( Figure 1A) and roots ( Figure 1B). According to Lipiec et al (2009), a higher water content in the soil results in thickening of the water film between water and soil particles, thereby facilitating its movement through the roots and the reduction in the soil mechanical resistance to penetration, as a consequence.…”
