Soil structural condition and its relationship with pastures under different conditions in the Simpson Valley (Humid western Patagonia, Chile)
The structural condition of the soil and its relationship with pastures under different conditions in use soil were evaluated in the Simpson Valley, Aysén Region, Chile (45° 43 ' S, 72° 07'N). Soils correspond to Andisols, Pollux series (Typic Hapludands). Established conditions were: terr...

The structural condition of the soil and its relationship with pastures under different conditions in use soil were evaluated in the Simpson Valley, Aysén Region, Chile (45° 43 ' S, 72° 07'N). Soils correspond to Andisols, Pollux series (Typic Hapludands). Established conditions were: terrace in degraded natural pasture (TPD), terrace in well-kept planted pasture (TPBE), silvopasture (SP), degraded natural pasture on a hill site (LPD), and well-kept planted pasture on a hill site (LPBE). At depths of 5, 10 and 20 cm. Percentage of soil aggregation, macroaggregates (Y >0.25 mm), microaggregates (Y<0.25 mm), stability of aggregates (MWD mm) and Loss Index (IP g kg-1) were determined by wet sieving.
