Agricultural activity changes the soil physical properties, making them unfavorable for plant development. The objective of this study was to evaluate the soil physical properties and total carbon stocks in the layers of 0 to 0.10 and 0.10 to 0.20 m depth, in areas under different management, and compare with the native forest soil. The study was conducted between May and December 2009, at University of Oeste Paulista, Presidente Prudente (SP). The experiment was conducted in a randomized block design with four replicates in a 4x2 factorial, with four soil management systems (no tillage (NT), conventional tillage (CT), pasture and native forest) and two sampling depths (0 to 0.10 and 0.10 to 0.20 m). We evaluated the parameters of soil bulk density, porosity, organic matter content and total carbon stocks in soil. Human intervention through agricultural practices reduces the stock of carbon in soil to levels well below the conditions found in native forest, besides providing the soil physical conditions worse than that of the soil kept under forest.
