Agricultural Suitability of a Sandy Soil in an Agrarian Reform Settlement

The soil classification is the systematic arrangement of soils into groups or categories based on attributes and diagnostic horizons. They can be structures that enable the conservation of soil, allowing infer through them the best use and management for a particular soil class. The aim of this work was to perform the taxonomic classification of a soil, through the Brazilian Soil Classification System (SiBCS), in an agrarian reform settlement in the city of Baliza - GO. It was also carry, for the purpose of soil conservation, the interpretation of its attributes for the soil classification within the Soil Agricultural Aptitude Assessment System. The soil of this study was classify as typical Orthic Quartzarenic Neosol, with severe limitations to agricultural use and that the current soil management is causing its erosion.
