Seasonal variation of soil aggregate stability, porosity and infiltration during a crop sequence under no tillage by Castiglioni, Mario Guillermo, Sasal, Maria Carolina, Wilson, Marcelo German, Oszust, José Daniel

“…Under no-tillage cropping, soil physical properties could change mainly due to the climatic factor effect, crop type and wheel traff ic. The aim of this study was to analyze the seasonal variation of selected soil physical properties of an Aquic Argiudoll under no-tillage, focusing on their relationship with water partitioning between inf iltration and runoff during a typical crop sequence of the Pampean region (Argentina). …”
