Effect of Soil Compaction Alleviation on Quality and Yield of Potato

摘要: Soils of tropical environments are exposed to the process degradation when natural ecosystems converted unsustainable agro-ecosystems. Soil compaction, which is part that process, widely found in Brazilian cultivated areas, especially potato fields intensive soil revolving operations promote disruption aggregates. Furthermore, very sensitive problems associated such as low development roots and diseases favored by high humidity tuber. In this way, a tillage system based on deep alleviation compaction for crop presented chapter. This system, named “deep loosening” was evaluated two producing regions Bahia Sao Paulo States provided higher yields, were improvement physical attributes. Thus, suggested an alternative improve production compacted areas and, also, tool recuperation soils damaged compaction.
