Abstract:Forages are important throughout the south-east USA for livestock production and wildlife habitat. However, little is known about how forage species commonly grown in this region influence soil-quality indicators. The objectives of this research were to determine shortterm response of soil water-stable aggregates (WSA) and density of fungal hyphae (DFH) to: (i) forage species or mixtures grown at identical soil pH levels and (ii) forage species or mixtures grown at field-state versus adjusted soil pH levels.
