Barrios, E.Coutinho, Heitor L.C.Medeiros, CAB[InPaC-S: participatory knowledge integration on indicators of soil quality: methodological guide]InPaC-S: participatory knowledge integration on indicators of soil quality: methodological guide

Planted tree or shrub fallows can help increase the fertility of degraded tropical soils. We investigated the effects of planted fallows of Indigofera (IND), Calliandra (CAL), and Tithonia (TTH); a natural, unmanaged fallow (NAT); and a maize/bean rotation (ROT) on the dynamics and partitioning o...


Phiri, SBarrios, E.Rao, Idupulapati M.Singh, B.R.[Changes in soil organic matter and phosphorus fractions under planted fallows and a crop rotation system on a Colombian volcanic-ash soil]Changes in soil organic matter and phosphorus fractions under planted fallows and a crop rotation system on a Colombian volcanic-ash soil

Smallholder agroforestry systems often incorporate features that are associated with abundant, diverse soil macrofauna populations. This study sampled soil macrofauna communities across four major land uses present within agricultural landscapes where the Quesungual Slash-and-Mulch Agroforestry S...

Ayarza, Miguel AngelBeltrán Giraldo, Jorge AlonsoBarrios, E.[Improved fallows : an alternative for rapid restoration of degraded soils]Improved fallows : an alternative for rapid restoration of degraded soils

The increasing attention paid to local soil knowledge in recent years is the result of a greater recognition that the knowledge of people who have been interacting with their soils for long time can offer many insights about the sustainable management of tropical soils. This paper describes two a...


Barrios, E.Trejo Tercero, M.T.[Implications of local soil knowledge for integrated soil management in Latin America]Implications of local soil knowledge for integrated soil management in Latin America

Near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) analysis was used to discriminate soils of different agroecosystems in Colombia, with different contents and qualities of organic matter, chemical, and biological properties. Correlations were sought between absorbance in wavelength classes as determ...

Organic resources (ORs) are essential inputs in tropical farming systems and their decomposition dynamics are related to their quality. A Decision Support System (DSS) for organic N management has been proposed earlier that subdivides ORs in four classes depending on their N, lignin, and soluble ...


Vanlauwe, BernardGachengo, CNShepherd, Keith D.Barrios, E.Cadisch, GeorgPalm, C.A.[Laboratory validation of a resource quality-based conceptual framework for organic matter management]Laboratory validation of a resource quality-based conceptual framework for organic matter management

The increasing attention paid to local soil knowledge results from a greater recognition that farmer knowledge can offer many insights into the sustainable management of tropical soils and that the integration of local and technical knowledge systems helps extension workers and scientists work mo...
