This study investigates the impacts of short-term (1.5-year) heavy (SHG) and long-term (33-year) moderate (LMG) grazing intensities on the chemical properties of soil in the tropical pasture ecosystems. Two pastures with different grazing intensities and two ungrazed pastures were sampled at the var...
