ANALYSIS OF SOIL QUALITY INDICES IN CONVENTIONAL AND AGROFORESTRY SYSTEMS BETWEEN 2016 AND 2022 AT THE SAPECHO EXPERIMENTAL STATION

Abstract

This work was carried out at the Sapecho Experimental Station, Faculty of Agronomy, Universidad Mayor de San Andrés. A tool is presented to evaluate soil quality based on normalized values for intrinsic soil factors, specifically studying physical parameters (bulk density) and chemical parameters (pH, organic matter, total nitrogen, calcium, magnesium, sodium, exchangeable potassium, base saturation, exchangeable acidity, and cation exchange capacity).
