Sustainable land use in periodically dry Brazilian savannas requires a water-saving management. We hypothesized that the annual course of matric potentials (?M) in very-fine, isohyperthermic Anionic Acrustoxes of Pinus plantations (PI), degraded (DP) and productive pastures (PP), no-till (NT) and...

The effect of land use on the availability of nitrogen (N) was studied by separating total N into a labile and a stable fraction by oxidation and extraction of labile N with KMnO4. The nitrogen management index (NMI) was calculated following the method of Blair et al. (1995) for the carbon manage...

Differently managed oxisols from Central Brazil were studied using a sequential P fractionation procedure because the effects of land use on the distribution of P forms in these soils are barely known. Therefore levels of labile and recalcitrant P forms in the natural Cerrado savanna were compare...
