“…In this case, the TM did not change the degree of compaction, possibly for the distribution of weight on the surface on all four wheels, which causes the pressure in the superficial layers are lower, this is consistent with reports of Botta et al (2006). Without the layer of 15-30 cm deep and continuous vehicular traffic of tractors, both features makes for changes in the sub-surface of soil travelled and in this case the 4 x 4 tractor showed a higher degree of compaction that the TL though not very different in magnitude, since in these conditions plays an important role densification of the soil, plowing floor and other physical factors of soil, coinciding with that described by Gameda et al (1987).…”

“…En este caso, el TM no modificó el grado de compactación, posiblemente por la distribución de su masa sobre la superficie en las cuatro ruedas, que origina que la presión ejercida en las capas superficiales sean menor, esto concuerda con los reportes de Botta et al (2006). sin el estrato de 15 a 30 cm de profundidad y el continuo tránsito rodado de los tractores de ambas características hace que haya alteraciones en la capa subsuperficial del suelo transitado y en este caso el tractor 4x4 mostró un mayor grado de compactación que el TL, aunque no muy diferente en cuanto a magnitud, ya que en estas condiciones tiene un papel preponderante la densificación del suelo, el piso de aradura y otros factores físicos del suelo, coincidiendo con lo descrito por Gameda et al (1987).…”

ResumenLa compactación del suelo es una de las áreas más importantes de la investigación para la protección del ambiente a nivel mundial. Los problemas de compactación del suelo se presentan con mucha frecuencia en áreas donde se tiene una mecanización agrícola extensiva e intensiva. Al respecto, esta investigación tiene como objetivo determinar el grado de compactación producido por el tránsito de tractores con diferentes sistemas de rodaje, masas e inflado de sus neumáticos, en un Vertisol. Para tal efecto se probaron tres tipos de tránsito rodado (3, 5 y 10 pasadas de tractores con diferentes masas). La presión media específica de uno de los tractores originó un aumento en el grado de compactación del suelo pero, a partir de las 5 pasadas de tránsito, el impacto fue mínimo. El tractor con fórmula 4 x 4 en su sistema de rodaje, fue el que menos alteró el grado de compactación en la capa superficial del suelo. Existe una relación lineal entre la presión media específica de los tractores y el aumento del grado de compactación del suelo en la mayoría de las variantes ensayadas.Palabras clave: humedad del suelo, índice de cono, multiarado. AbstractSoil compaction is one of the most important areas of research for environmental protection worldwide. The soil compaction problems occur frequently in areas where we have an extensive and intensive agricultural mechanization. In this regard, this study aims to determine the degree of compaction caused by tractor traffic with different systems of shooting, weight and inflating the tires in a Vertisol. For this purpose three types of road traffic were tested (3, 5 and 10 strokes of tractors with different weights). The specific average pressure of one of the tractors led to an increase in the degree of compaction but, beginning at 5 passes traffic, the impact was minimal. The tractor formula 4 x 4 running on the system least altered the degree of compaction in the topsoil. A linear relationship between the average specific pressure tractors and increasing the degree of compaction in most of the variants tested.

“…The trends, presented by Gameda et al (1987), suggest that our analysis on sandy and silt loam soils, and the findings are true in the case of the results from Kumar et al (2012), as well. In experiments (McKyes 1985) maize production in the dry season contrasted sharply with the wet season.…”

“…In this case the average density of soils correlates with the compaction significantly. Gameda et al (1987) also examined the compaction stresses in maize culture under wet and dry conditions (clay content: 35%). Dry years' results revealed 26% cereal yield reductions, while under wet conditions there was ~55% maize yield reduction.…”

This paper reviews the works related to the effect of soil compaction on cereal yield and focuses on research of field experiments. The reasons for compaction formation are usually a combination of several types of interactions. Therefore one of the most researched topics all over the world is the changes in the soil's physical and chemical properties to achieve sustainable cereal production conditions. Whether we are talking about soil bulk density, physical soil properties, water conductivity or electrical conductivity, or based on the results of measurements of on-line or point of soil sampling resistance testing, the fact is more and more information is at our disposal to find answers to the challenges.Thanks to precision plant production technologies (PA) these challenges can be overcome in a much more efficient way than earlier as instruments are available (geospatial technologies such as GIS, remote sensing, GPS with integrated sensors and steering systems; plant physiological models, such Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer (DSSAT), which includes models for cereals etc.). The tests were carried out first of all on alteration clay and sand content in loam, sandy loam and silt loam soils. In the study we examined especially the change in natural soil compaction conditions and its effect on cereal yields.Both the literature and our own investigations have shown that the soil moisture content changes have the opposite effect in natural compaction in clay and sand content related to cereal yield. These skills would contribute to the spreading of environmental, sustainable fertilizing devoid of nitrate leaching planning and cereal yield prediction within the framework of the PA to eliminate seasonal effects.

“…Gameda et al (1987), Lindstrom and Voorhees (1994) proofed the yield decline due to soil compaction. Impacts of soil compaction on plant growth, due to compress and disrupted soil structure were described by Görbing (1948) and Wollny (1898).…”
