Unlike Eucalyptus monocultures, nitrogen fixing trees are likely to improve the soil nutrient
status through the decomposition of N-enriched litter. The Home Field Advantage (HFA) …

In the tropical drylands of Colombia, the soils subjected to traditional systems of livestock
production are severely degraded and depleted of plant nutrients. Multistrata silvopastoral …

Litter decomposition is a major process in nutrient recycling, despite that few studies have
considered this in soil fertility management. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect …

The intensive cattle production on the Colombian Atlantic coast causes soil degradation and
low productivity on pastures. Silvopastoral systems in Colombia are based on introduced …

Studies to understand litter processes and soil properties are useful for maintaining
pastureland productivity as animal husbandry is the dominant occupation in the hot arid …

The objective of this study was to evaluate the temporal composition of epigeous fauna
during decomposition of different legume combinations in alley cropping systems. Two …
