At the same time, however, its over-intensive management, especially in a semi-arid biome such as the Caatinga, by contrast becomes \u201cthe primary human-induced cause of soil degradation, intensely threatening lands vulnerable to <strong>desertification<\/strong>,\u201d says research published in the Journal of Environmental Management.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThis study examines (i) how overgrazing impacts multiple soil indicators, functions, and <strong>overall soil health<\/strong> (SH) and (ii) whether natural early forest growth post-grazing exclusion enhances critical soil functions for ecosystem restoration.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Conducted at the initiative of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ondacbc.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Observat\u00f3rio Nacional da Din\u00e2mica da \u00c1gua e do Carbono no Bioma Caatinga<\/a> in Recife, the research project covered a number of areas located in <strong>three municipalities<\/strong> in the semi-arid region of Pernambuco: Araripina, Sert\u00e2nia and S\u00e3o Bento do Una. Scientists took soil and vegetation samples to assess the impact of degradation. More importantly, they searched for the first signs of recovery after grazing was stopped.

Also useful, the researchers explain, is the use of <strong>fast-growing trees<\/strong>, that is, plants that can form a dense canopy in a short period of time. In this way, the plants protect the soil from excess light by creating an ideal environment under the canopy that promotes the development of regenerative species that benefit the soil.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The study in the Caatinga region in Brazil: stopping grazing is not enough to restore soil health.
