Summary: | The cerrado region of the Piaui State is considered the last brazilian agricultural frontier. Its sustainability depends, among others factors, of the adopted management systems. The objective of this work was to evaluate the changes in the chemical attributes of a dystrophic Yellow Latosol, under different management systems: no-tillage (NT), conventional tillage (CT) and just-deforested area (JDA), compared to native cerrado vegetation (NC). The soil samples were collected in the Progresso Farm, in Uruçuí, PI, in the 0-5; 5-10; 10-20 and 20-40cm depths. pH in water (1:2.5), Al3+, H + Al, Ca2+, Mg2+, K+, available P and organic matter (OM) were evaluated. The soil cation exchange capacity at pH 7.0 (T), sum of basis (SB), basis saturation (V) and the saturation for aluminum (m) were determined. In all the soil depths, the Al3 + was lower in the NT and CT systems. NT and CT also presented the highest (p |
