Soil macrofauna and organic matter in irrigated orchards under Mediterranean climate
Original language description
Soil fauna abundance and diversity and organic matter content are key indicators for the rate of soil degradation in Mediterranean-type ecosystems. The soil macrofauna populations were examined in three orange (Citrus sinensis) orchards and one persimmon (Diospyros kaki) orchard, with the same soil type and different management systems, to establish whether organic management benefits soil fauna and soil quality and what is the effect of flood irrigation. Vegetation cover, soil organic matter, bulk density and moisture were measured at each experimental site within the Canyoles watershed in Eastern Spain in summer of 2015. Earthworm abundance was highest at the organic orchard with flood irrigation, followed by the organic orchard with drip irrigation, with juvenile endogeic earthworms being the dominant group. Soil isopoda was the dominant group of the arthropod macrofauna, with highest abundance in the drip irrigated organic orchard. Earthworm presence was highest in the flood irrigate
