Abstract
A Review Article : The Effect of Agricultural Practices on The Abundance and Biodiversity of Soil Fauna
Highlights
Agricultural practices can be both beneficial and detrimental to the soil biota.Likewise soil biota increase or reduce agricultural production (Gupta, 1994)
We summarize recent researches on the effects of agricultural practices on the abundance and biodiversity of arthropod soil fauna with special reference to spiders
Population size and species diversity of soil fauna are strongly influenced by agricultural practices (Wallwork, 1976 ; Pong, 2013)
Summary
Agricultural practices can be both beneficial and detrimental to the soil biota.Likewise soil biota increase or reduce agricultural production (Gupta, 1994). Rizk andMikhail (1999) indicated that, which the cover crops of Lupinus termis and Triflum alexandrinum before incorporation into the soil, supported higher activity densities and more groups (4 taxonomic groups) of soil fauna than in the case of tomato cultivated with conventional tillage practices (2 taxonomic groups).
