“…Therefore, in older crops, the effect of soil compaction over time leads to soil strengthening (Jensen et al, 2020). Such strengthening generates the structural restoration of the soil over time due to the rearrangement of soil particles and clay flocculation, changing the porosity and the cementing effect of the soil, increasing bulk density (Ferreira et al, 2019).…”

The mechanization of coffee crops changes the soil structure due to intense machinery traffic, causing soil compaction, especially during harvesting. Soil attributes are important for the development of sustainable coffee farming as they can be indicators of soil quality. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the soil physical quality in coffee crops with different deployment times and a native forest, using a sensitivity index. The experiment was conducted in a Ultisol (Argissolo Vermelho amarelo) in Muzambinho, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The soil samples were collected in February 2017, in coffee crops of different deployment times (3, 16 and 32 years) and in an area of native forest for comparison purposes. The 32-year-old crop was harvested manually due to its age, while the 3 and 16-year-old areas were harvested with a selfpropelled harvester. Samples were collected in the planting row (R), under the coffee canopy (UCC) and in inter-row center (IRC), at depths of 0.00-0.10, 0.10-0.20 and 0.20-0.40 m, with three replications. In general, the largest accumulations of organic matter (OM) are in the 0.00-0.10 m layer at the inter-row center, and the 16-year-old crop showed the highest OM contents at UCC and IRC. Soil compaction increases with proximity to traffic lanes, regardless of crop age. The sensitivity index proved to be an efficient tool for comparison, indicating high soil sensitivity to coffee crop management and deployment time. However, despite the high sensitivity of the attributes, they do not present values that limit crop development, close to values found at forest area.

“…Zhang et al (2022) measured the water retention curves of subgrade aggregates with different clay fine particle contents, and speculated the pores of soil aggregates with different fine particle contents. Ferreira et al (2019) also used the water retention curve to analyse the soil structure changes caused by lime, and concluded that lime no-tillage reduced the macroporosity of shallow soil and expanded the pore volume of surface pores. According to the water retention curve method, the estimation of soil pores is simple and cost-effective.…”

Soil pore is an important part of soil structure. According to the causes of formation, soil pores can be divided into biological pores formed by animal movement and plant root development and non-biological pores formed by dry-wet and freeze-thaw alternation or artificial tillage. The soil pore structure affects the migration of water, gas, nutrients and so on in the soil, especially the macropores can also produce water or solute preferential migration. Studying soil pores is of great significance for predicting soil hydraulic properties, reducing groundwater pollution and soil nutrient loss. Based on previous studies on soil pore structure, this paper systematically summarized the role of soil pores, influencing factors and the advantages and disadvantages of various research methods. This paper not only introduces traditional methods (including direct and indirect methods), but also summarizes the new research on soil pores combined with computed tomography (CT) technology and other science and technology in recent years. Finally, the prospect and development trend of soil pore research in the future were predicted, so as to provide reference for further research on soil pore structure.

“…Soil microporosity is linked to the water retention capacity; soils that present a higher number of micropores tend to retain more water. The micropores also improve the overall water infiltration capacity by acting as capillary conductors for the water to flow through the soil profile [17].…”

The expansion of cultivation areas, especially in the last decade, has changed the landscapes of 'Campos de Cima in Serra' of Rio Grande do Sul state, where livestock activity has been developing for 300 years. The introduction of silviculture, grain crops, and orchards, in addition to the cultivation of vegetables, have imposed different managements on the soils, ranging from direct planting to the use of rotary hoes. This work sought to evaluate the impact of different types of soil management on the physical properties and water infiltration capacity of a ferralsol, typical of this region of the north of Rio Grande do Sul state. The soil under the management of native grazing fields showed lower particle and bulk densities and resistance to penetration, while soil planted on garlic crops showed greater resistance to penetration, particle and bulk densities, and lower total porosity and macroporosity. The average infiltration speed was 29.2 mm•h -1 for the native field under grazing (T1), 65.4 mm•h -1 for planting on soybean straw (T2), and 20.0 mm•h -1 for planting on garlic crop (T3). It was observed that intensive management, such as the use of the rotary hoe, had a considerable negative impact on the physical properties and the speed of water infiltration in the soil and, consequently, potential damage to the replenishment of underground deposits, when compared with direct planting and the native field.
