Chemical analysis was carried out using the methods described by EMBRAPA (Brazilian Agricultural Research Company) (1997). Based on the analysis results, values were estimated for the sum of bases (SB), cation exchange capacity at pH 7.0 (T pH 7.0), base saturation (V%), and aluminum saturation (m%). To obtain a physical characterization, soil texture was evaluated using the pipette method with organic matter oxidation, according to Tavares Filho and Magalhães (2008).
