Abstract

Earthworms develop soils and, consequently, promote plant growth. Therefore, earthworms are useful both for the management of watersheds and for the restoration of degraded areas. This work is the last in a series of three articles, aiming to discuss the influence of earthworms on water movement at the soil level of watersheds.
