  1. A field method to determine three dimensional infiltrability of vineyard soils

    A field method to determine three dimensional infiltrability of vineyard soils

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: South African Journal of Plant and Soil • Authors: P.A. Myburgh --- , South Africa C.L. Howell --- , South Africa D. Brink --- , South Africa
    A method is described to measure water intake from a small, shallow pond in which a 5 mm constant water head is maintained. Since water is supplied to the soil at near atmospheric pressure, infiltrability rather than infiltration rate is...
  2. The effects of organic and conventional management practices on feeding activity of soil organisms in vineyards

    The effects of organic and conventional management practices on feeding activity of soil organisms in vineyards

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Zoology • Authors: A. J. Reinecke --- Department of Botany and Zoology, South Africa R. M. C. Albertus --- Department of Botany and Zoology, South Africa S. A. Reinecke --- Department of Botany and Zoology, South Africa O. Larink --- Technical University, Germany
    This study investigated whether the activity of soil organisms in a vineyard soil in the Western Cape, South Africa, was affected differently by different management practices. The influences of organic and conventional treatments were compared in two vineyard blocks, one...
