SUMMARY
The economic and environmental sustainability of extensive livestock production systems requires the optimisation of soil management, pasture production and animal grazing, which justifies the actual research interest in animal/soil interactions or in tree/soil interactions. About 20% of the world`s pasture areas are degraded as a consequence of overgrazing and its associated erosion and compaction, where the main impact mentioned is the soil compaction by animal trampling. The hoof impact of livestock tends to cause the collapse of the larger soil pores, thus forming more small pores, increasing soil bulk density and . . .
