Spatial Variability Of Soil Compaction In Annual Cycle Of Different Culture Of Cane Sugar Land Clay Sandy

UNESP
The assessment of soil compaction levels and choosing the best management system are very important in modern agriculture, aiming to prevent or at least restore their physical conditions to a satisfactory level. The renewal of sugar cane plantation happens on average every 5 or 6 years. The current way repeats a sequence compaction and decompaction events during successive cycles of sugarcane, which promotes breakdown of soil structure. During the harvesting and transportation, the energy demanded in soil compaction is due tracks and tires rolling resistance, and in soil tillage is also expended a lot of energy to pull the equipments used at soil decompaction process. This work was carried out to evaluate the soil physical degradation in relation to the sequence of annual crop production of sugar cane, in a

) clayey texture calculating the Soil Cone Index (CI) in the folowing depth ranges : 0-10 , 10-20, 20-30 , 30-40 and 40-50 cm . The sugar cane productive area, belonging to Barra Grande mill, from Zilor group in Lençóis Paulista region, in São Paulo state, was evaluated during three subsequent seasons. For soil sampling it was used the Mobile Soil Sampling Unit - UMAS - belonging to Agroforestry Machinary and tire Test Center - NEMPA, Department of Rural Engineering, College of Agricultural Sciences - FCA - UNESP, Botucatu - SP. The sampling points in the areas and in subsequent crop cycles ( subsequent years), collections were made using a sampling grid of 30 x 50 m , meaning 30 meters between points following the line of planting sugar cane and 50 meters between plant rows (traffic line) for penetration resistance. The models were adjusted by GS + 7.0 software. For the analysis of spatial dependence index (SDI ) of attributes , it was used the relationship defined in GS + ( C1/C0 + C1 ) software and the proposed ranges by Zimback that considers weak spatial dependence ( IDE ≤ 25 % ) ; moderate ( 25 % < IDE < 75 % ) and strong ( IDE ≥ 75 % ) . As it was proved the spatial dependence, a interpolation was used to estimate values in not measured locations using the ordinary kriging method to create thematic maps. It was observed that every year, there was an increase in compaction of soil, and more intensive in the traffic lines and superficial layers (from 0 to 10, 10 to 20 and 20 to 30 cm)
