“…Entretanto, os índices de qualidade estrutural do solo avaliados pelo DRES (Tabela 3), indicam alterações na estrutura do solo com os diferentes tratamentos, corroborando com os resultados encontrados por Valani et al (2020) que indicam que o DRES é um método com ampla sensibilidade em identificar mudanças de manejo. As menores médias de IQES foram encontrados no Milho solteiro, com notas entre 3,0 e 3,9 que representam o predomínio de agregados com faces planas, poucos poros e atividade biológica e, pode apresentar raízes achatadas com dificuldade para desenvolvimento.…”

“…A Urochloa ruziziensis é uma das gramíneas com maior potencial para promover melhorias à estrutura do solo em razão da quantidade, qualidade e distribuição de fitomassa radicular (CALONEGO et al, 2011a). Embora as avaliações da qualidade do solo sejam baseadas principalmente em abordagens analíticas, as avaliações visuais a campo ajudam os agricultores, consultores e pesquisadores a analisar os solos de maneira rápida e barata (VALANI et al 2020). O Diagnóstico Rápido da Estrutura do Solo (DRES) consiste em um teste para avaliar a estrutura do solo em relação às características visuais (RALISCH et al, 2017).…”

The objective of this work was to evaluate the productivity of maizedry matter in the consortium with forage or in single cultivation, oats + ryegrass in succession and the physical attributes in a Red Nitosol. The experiment was conducted in Concórdia -SC in the agricultural years 2016/2017 and 2017/2018. The design wasa randomized block with 5 replications, consisting of the treatments: T1 -Single maize; T2 -Maize + Pigeon pea forage (Cajanus cajan); T3 -Maize + Urochloa ruziziensis; T4 -Maize + Pigeon peaforage + U. ruziziensis, T5 –Pigeon peaforage and T6 -U.ruziziensissingle. The dry mass productivity (PMS) of maize, forage and oats + ryegrass in succession was determined. Also, the Rapid Diagnosis of Soil Structure (DRES) and the Mechanical Resistance of Soil to Penetration (RSP) were carried out after twoyears of cultivation. The presence of U. ruziziensisand / or Pigeon peadid not affect the dry matter yield of maizein both harvests. The highest PMS of oats were found in the plots following single maizeand the smallest for the second crop, where treatments with U. ruziziensisfollowed. For RSP, no significant differences were found in consortia and single crops. The treatments with U. ruziziensisobtained better indexes of structural quality. The corn consortium with Urochloa ruziziensis, in addition to not reducing silage productivity, provides forage availability in the autumn empty period, as well as improving soil attributes.

“…Characteristics and application scope of China's main cultivated land quality (CLQ) evaluation results. In recent years, the investigation and evaluation of CLQ has paid more and more attention to the protection of the comprehensive quality of cultivated land production, ecology and health [10][11][12], mainly related to soil quality assessment [13][14][15], soil health assessment [16][17][18][19], multifunctional analysis of cultivated land [20,21], accounting of cultivated land productivity [22][23][24], land production potential evaluation [25,26], soil safety evaluation [27][28][29][30], evaluation of cultivated land healthy productivity [31,32], land ecological research [33,34], and land remediation and utilization [35][36][37][38]. It shows that the evaluation of CLQ is constantly advancing with the times (Figure 1), and new content is constantly added [39].…”

Under the task requirements of China’s 3rd national land survey on the grade determination of cultivated land, research on a reasonable and unified survey and evaluation system of cultivated land quality (CLQ) is of great importance. From the three dimensions of agricultural climate, production potential, and health status components of cultivated land, six factors are selected in this study to construct a set of simple, practicable, and operable county-level CLQ survey and evaluation system. These factors are climate conditions of cultivated land, soil characteristics, tillage conditions, the attributes of cultivated land type, environmental conditions, and biological activity. The developed survey and evaluation system meets the demands of national engineering for the inclusion and coordination of multiple departments based on the current evaluation system and evaluation methodology of all relevant land administrative departments. Wen County, Henan Province is used for field verification and evaluation. Results demonstrate that the average quality index of cultivated land in Wen County is 2196.33, ranging from 660.70 to 2802.96 with the largest area of the first-class and second-class land accounting for 20.98% and 52.61% of the county’s cultivated land, respectively; the third-class and fourth-class land, 12.63% and 13.78%. The obvious regional differentiation characteristics are presented along the boundary of Qingfengling with the quality of northern cultivated land higher than that in the south. The comparison with the results of the national utilization gradation in 2018 infers that they are in accordance with the distribution of CLQ, which bears a significant positive correlation trend with the measured grain output of the field. The constructed evaluation system serves as a rewarding attempt of a unified survey and evaluation of CLQ at the county scale to reflect the production capacity of local crops, realize the sharing of data platforms, save manpower and capital investment, improve the practical connection of supervision and management of cultivated land protection in different departments, and meet the requirements of current cultivated land protection and management.

“…However, other factors must be considered, such as vegetation, food availability, climate, topography, area history, temperature and soil type (Machado et al 2015, Borges et al 2019, Coq et al 2020, Wang et al 2020. In recent years, several studies have studied the edaphic macrofauna as a bioindicator of soil quality, since they are more sensitive to environmental changes (Paudel et al 2012, Rousseau et al 2013, Pereira et al 2017, Araujo et al 2018, Morais Sobrinho et al 2019, Schubert et al 2019, Velasquez & Lavelle 2019, Valani et al 2020. The purpose of these studies is to understand how these individuals are affected and what their environmental functions are, in order to seek more conservationist forest management practices.…”

Macrofauna individuals' knowledge and their environmental functions is essential to seek more conservationist forest management practices. Understanding how the publications are being distributed in Brazil, and what knowledge need to be discussed to direct future research. The purpose of this review was to compile and analyze all publications on soil macrofauna in Brazil until 2019, conducting a bibliometric and state of the art review. 60 documents were evaluated, it was analyzing institutions and authors, citations networks and terms used, forest sciences areas that encompass the most explored biomes, crop systems or natural environmental and the most studied soil macrofauna individuals. Since 2002, every year, publications on the topic indexed in the Scopus database. The Atlantic Forest was the most studied biome and although the North region has the largest number of states that have not yet developed works on the subject, the Amazon forest is in second place in terms of publications, together with Savannah/Cerrado. The largest gap in studies and areas of natural fields is found in the Brazilian North. The macrofauna individuals studied, the highlights are from the orders Coleoptera, Hymenoptera, Blattodea, Araneae and Hemiptera. Vegetation type was carried out predominantly in native forests, followed by pasture.
