000151187 5203_ $$aAlthough is well known that grazing has a significant effect on the soil hydraulic properties and through them on the pasture productivity in semi-arid regions, there is still little data about the effect of this management on soils with high gypsum content. This work compares the effect of three increasing grazing intensities (low, medium, and high) on the hydraulic properties of the upper soil layers, measured on two areas with increasing gypsum content (56 and 73%, respectively) located in a semi-arid region of the Middle Ebro Valley (NE, Spain). 90 soil samplings were taken on bare soil surface areas. The measured soil parameters included the saturated sorptivity (S-c) and hydraulic conductivity (K-c) of the soil surface layer and the soil bulk density (rho(b)), saturated hydraulic conductivity (K-s), saturated volumetric water content, theta(s), and alpha and n parameters of the water retention curve of the 1-8 cm depth soil layer. Increasing gypsum content increased the soil water infiltration but did not affect the water retention capacity and total porosity. All studied gypseous soils presented low water retention. High grazing intensities decreased the soil water infiltration. While soils with high gypsum content tended to attenuate the effect of the livestock trampling on rho(b), a significant influence of grazing on rho(b) was observed in the fields with moderate soil gypsum content. No effect of livestock trampling on the soil water retention characteristics was observed. Moderate grazing, which did not show negative effects on the soil hydro-physical properties, could be an acceptable management for soil conservation in these semiarid regions of soils with high gypsum content.
