The aim of this study was to evaluate some physical attributes and determine the last limiting water range in a cohesive dystrophic Oxisol of the Coastal Plains of the Reconcavo of Bahia subjected to different uses and soil management. We collected 40 samples of undisturbed soil in horizons A / Ap and AB cohesive in each of the three land uses: native forest (Mata Atlantica), degraded pasture of Brachiaria decumbens and cane sugar (after 3 years subsoiling), located on the campus of the Federal University of Reconcavo of the Bahia, in Cruz das Almas city, Bahia. Evaluations of porosity, density, soil water retention curve, soil penetration resistance as a function of matric potential of soil water and last limiting water range. The results indicated that the resistance to penetration was affected by the density positively and negatively by soil moisture, with greater magnitude in the AB horizon, and mainly in pasture soil. The total porosity and macroporosity of the forest were similar to sugarcane (subsoiling), but differ pasture. Considering the forest as a reference, it can be inferred that the management of pasture decreased the total porosity and macroporosity, while in the case of sugar cane that has not happened, i.e., the management used in the cultivation of sugarcane (subsoiling) besides making the Ap horizons AB and more alike physically, caused the values were close to the soil under forest. Water retention in soil under forest and under sugar cane was higher in AB horizon, slightly more clay than the horizon, however, the pasture soil the opposite happened. The least limiting water range in the A horizon of the forest and the Rev. sugar cane were similar, and both were greater than in the horizon pastagem. In the AB, the IHO for sugar cane was higher than for the forest, and this greater than for grazing. The Horizons / Ap showed higher critical density relative to the horizon AB for all uses evaluated. Use that showed values of bulk density greater than the critical density was grazing. In cohesive soils control the physical quality is dependent on water conservation along the profile, and reduced by RP methods that increase macroporosity via reduction of Ds is an alternative to keep the RP at levels that do not impede the plants.
