description One of the biggest problems facing forest management is the degradation and conservation of soil quality. The objective of this work was to carry out an analysis of physical and chemical aspects of the soil in areas subject to forest management in Ixtlán de Juárez, Oaxaca, to provide recommendations for forestry management and soil conservation. Three clear-cut strips and three adjacent sites of alternate vegetation were selected, in addition to a natural recovery site subject to agriculture and forest management in the past. Each site was subdivided into three altitudes (high, medium, and low) at which the soil's physical and chemical properties were analyzed through variance analysis and multivariate (PCA-principal component analysis, MDS-multidimensional scaling analysis, and heatmap). A significant effect of the clear-cut treatment was found on some physical (density, compaction, and porosity) and chemical (carbon, pH, conductivity, nitrogen, and magnesium) properties compared to alternate vegetation. The multivariate analysis of the physicochemical properties (ACP, MDS, and heatmap) grouped and correlated the alternate vegetation and natural recovery sites with altitude and differentiated them from the clear-cut sites. The study also suggests a recovery of soil quality in a few decades, given the similarity between areas of alternate vegetation and natural treatment. It is recommended not to practice complementary scarification treatments of the soil. However, on the contrary, its activity promotes the retention of the organic horizon to increase the possibility of maintaining the soil's physicochemical properties.

Entre los principales temas que aborda el manejo forestal están la degradación y la conservación de la calidad del suelo. El objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar aspectos físicos y químicos del suelo en áreas sujetas a manejo forestal en Ixtlán de Juárez, Oaxaca, con la finalidad de aportar recomendaciones al manejo forestal y la conservación del suelo. Se seleccionaron tres sitios de matarrasa en franja y tres sitios adyacentes de vegetación alterna como control, además de un sitio de recuperación natural sujeto en el pasado a agricultura. Cada sitio fue subdivido en tres altitudes (superior, media y baja) y en cada una de ellas se determinaron las propiedades físicas y químicas del suelo. A los resultados se le aplicaron análisis de varianza y multivariados (ACP- análisis de componentes principales, MDS- análisis de escalamiento multidimensional y mapa de calor). Se encontró un efecto significativo del tratamiento de matarrasa sobre algunas propiedades físicas (densidad, compactación y porosidad) y químicas (carbono, pH, conductividad, nitrógeno y magnesio) en comparación con vegetación alterna. El análisis multivariado de las propiedades fisicoquímicas agrupó y correlacionó con la altitud a los sitios de vegetación alterna y recuperación natural y los diferenció de los de matarrasa en franja. El estudio sugirió, además, una recuperación de la calidad del suelo en pocas décadas, dada la similitud entre los sitios de vegetación alterna y recuperación natural. Se recomienda no practicar tratamientos complementarios de escarificación del suelo, sino fomentar la retención del horizonte orgánico para incrementar las posibilidades de mantener las propiedades fisicoquímicas del suelo.
