Abstract

Plinthossols are great part of agricultural soils of Tocantins, in this sense is very important understand the modifications promoted in these soils by agricultural use. The experiment had made in Couto Magalhães in a Haplistic Plinthosol. Was adopted the casuistic design in a 3x2 factorial scheme three uses (native vegetation, conventional tillage and no-tillage) and two depth (0-20 cm e 20-40 cm) The soil uses had conventional tillage, no-tillage, and native forest. The conventional planting system increases soil porosity and consequently reduces density at both depths. The no-tillage system, on the other hand, resulted in a greater density of the soil, but in values that do not limit cultivation, showing that both systems are viable for cultivation in this type of soil.
