Resumen

El Método Mejorado de los Injertos (ISUM) fue diseñado inicialmente para evaluar los procesos de erosión del suelo en viñedos; sin embargo, en otros cultivos injertados también podría usarse con éxito, como los huertos de cítricos. Los resultados obtenidos a partir de ISUM han permitido estudiar varios objetivos pero aún no se han utilizado para calcular el factor LS (longitud y pendiente) de la Ecuación Universal de Pérdida de Suelo (USLE), que podría proporcionar información útil para ayudar a planificar una mejor gestión del suelo. Esta investigación se realizó en un campo de clementinas de 8 años ubicado en Canals (Valencia, España) y los valores del factor LS se calcularon mediante dos algoritmos preestablecidos, que permiten calcular un Índice de Longitud de Transecto (TLI). Nuestros resultados demostraron que los cambios microtopográficos pueden mostrar frecuentes irregularidades. Para los valores del Índice de Longitud del Transecto (TLI), los valores medios fueron 1,02% para el lado izquierdo y 1,04% para el derecho. La diferencia entre las áreas pronosticadas en el momento de la construcción de los surcos y el momento de la medición de datos nos permitió estimar un volumen total de 56,9 m3 de suelo movilizado en 19 años. Teniendo en cuenta el área estudiada (360 m2 ), el volumen del suelo movilizado y la densidad aparente del suelo (1,3 g cm-3), estimamos una movilización total del suelo de 8,3 mm año-1 o 10,4 kg m-2 año-1. No observamos ninguna evidencia o indicador de erosión en forma de regueros por el efecto de la lluvia, lo que sugiere que la escorrentía homogeneiza la distribución de sedimentos durante las fuertes lluvias (corroboradas por los datos de TLI) o las prácticas de labranza. Los datos creados después de aplicar ISUM pueden ser considerados adecuados para usarse para calcular los valores del factor LS. La cantidad de pérdida de suelo predicha por USLE siempre fue menor que la predicha por ISUM
