Resumo: Clearcutting for livestock production in the Dry Chaco is leading to shrub invasion and desertification. This trend could be avoided through a more rational management of the arboreous resources. The effects of a selective thinning (40% tree canopy cover) on soil nitrogen and moisture dynamics were studied during one year. Accumulated N mineralization was 40% higher in the selective thinning than in the natural woodland (85% arbustive + tree canopy cover). Different patterns were observed under the dominant tree species. In the selective thinning, available N, N immobilized in microbial biomass and soil water content were significantly higher under Aspidosperma quebracho-blanco Schlecht., Apocinaceae. In the natural woodland, N availability and nitrifier densities were higher under Prosopis flexuosa DC, Fabaceae. The open interspaces between trees exhibited the lowest values of all measured parameters. Possible explanations of observed differences and implications for pasture production are discussed.

Se estudió durante un año el efecto de un desmonte parcial (40% de cobertura arbórea) sobre la dinámica del N y la humedad del suelo. La mineralización acumulada de N fue 40% mayor en el desmonte selectivo que en el monte natural (85% de cobertura arbórea + arbustiva). Se observaron diferencias en los efectos de las dos especies arbóreas dominantes. En el desmonte selectivo la disponibilidad de N, N imnovilizado en biomassa microbiana y contenido de humedad del suelo fueron significativamente más altos bajo Aspidosperma quebracho-blanco Schlecht., Apocinácea. En el monte natural, en cambio, la mayor disponibilidad de N y densidad de nitrificadores se observó bajo Prosopis flexuosa DC, Fabácea. Los espacios abiertos entre árboles presentaron los valores más bajos de todas las variables medidas. Se discuten causas de las diferencias encontradas y probables implicancias en la productividad de las pasturas.Pesquisa Agropecuaria BrasileiraPesquisa Agropecuária BrasileiraOliva, LuisaMazzarino, Maria J.Nuñez, GabrielaAbril, AdrianaAcosta, Marta1993-06-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/3929Pesquisa Agropecuaria Brasileira; v.28, n.6, jun. 1993; 709-718Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira; v.28, n.6, jun. 1993; 709-7181678-39210100-104xreponame:Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online)instname:Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)instacron:EMBRAPAporhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/3929/1220info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2012-02-16T10:33:06Zoai:ojs.seer.sct.embrapa.br:article/3929Revistahttp://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pabPRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phppab@sct.embrapa.br || sct.pab@embrapa.br1678-39210100-204Xopendoar:2012-02-16T10:33:06Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online) - Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)false
