A Review of Soybean Cultivation On Stony Soils in Tocantins, Brazil

With the expansion and opening of new areas, these stony soils are having agricultural use, contrary to the recommendation of the agricultural aptitude system. The objective of this work is to present some results obtained about the use and management of this soil in the Legal Amazon region, state of Tocantins, Brazil. For the present study, the dialectical method of an exploratory qualitative approach was used. Plintosols yields are quite similar to Latosols, just adjusting management and conservation practices. However, it is known that we still have a long way to go to answer all the questions about growing on these soils.
