摘要: Soil and foliar arthropod populations in agricultural settings respond to environmental disturbance degradation, impacting functional biodiversity agroecosystems. The objective of this study was evaluate system level management effects on soil abundance diversity corn soybean. Our field experiment a completely randomized block design with three replicates for five farming systems which included: Conventional clean till, conventional long rotation, no-till, organic reduced till. sampling accomplished by pitfall trapping. Foliar scouting sweep netting Overall significantly impacted cropping arthropods soybeans. rotation till were highest overall while exceeded all other over weeks is suspected be the result in-field weed cover crop cultivation practices. This suggests that sum practices within production impact these are dynamic season. Changes may explained as sources refuges via reduction. Furthermore, our results suggest lower intensity, whether due or levels disturbance, foster greater diversity.
