Resumen :
El pastoreo extensivo consiste en una práctica de ganadería donde los rebaños se alimentan de forma libre en áreas amplias y abiertas de pastizales. La ganadería extensiva trashumante, en particular, preserva los paisajes culturales y la identidad tradicional de zonas productivas. Sin embargo, poco... Ver más
Extensive grazing is a livestock husbandry practice where herds graze freely in large, open areas of grassland. Extensive transhumant livestock farming preserves cultural landscapes and the traditional identity of productive areas. However, little is known about its effect on the conservation of ecosystem processes and soil degradation, while promoting the conservation of biodiversity. However, few studies evaluate the effect of extensive livestock production in the environmental sustainability and soil conservation at Mediterranean regions. The present study focuses on investigating the soil properties that are affected by the action of domestic herbivores, thus analyzing whether significant changes in soil properties occur as a function of the grazing conditions established. To carry out the study, two herds grazing in the "Campos de Hernán Perea" of the Sierra de Cazorla y Las Villas Natural Park, in the municipality of Pontones, were selected. Field information was collected on the activity of the two herds and soil samples were collected according to the different levels of grazing intensity (high, medium and low). According to the results, and in the herds studied, the increased grazing pressure facilitates the recycling of nutrients and residues (nutrient cycling). The results reflect an improvement in edaphic properties in the grazed areas according to herd size. Meanwhile, in the evaluation of different levels of grazing intensity, significant differences in nitrogen content and aggregate stability were observed, which affirms that grazing can contribute to the formation of stable aggregates, thus improving soil structure.
