Precision agriculture has been used as an important technique for localized management of soil fertility. Therefore, it is essential to characterize the spatial variability of chemical and physical attributes of the soil by sampling can represent such variations. This study aimed to analyze the correlation between the apparent electrical conductivity with the chemical and physical attributes of an Rhodic Hapludox. The work was performed on a property located in the Brazilian Cerrado. In an area of 90 hectare were collected 181 georeferenced soil samples at depths from 0.00 to 0.20 meters. The same sites and removal of samples were made apparent electrical conductivity of the soil. The samples were sent to the laboratory to perform the physical and chemical analysis. Were selected randomly sampling 30 points and calculated the Pearson correlation coefficient between the variable physical, chemical and apparent soil electrical conductivity. There was no significant correlation between the apparent electrical conductivity with the soil physical attributes. There was a significant positive correlation of apparent electrical conductivity of the soil at a depth of 0.20 m with the chemical attributes match, remaining phosphorus and zinc., A agricultura de precisão vem sendo utilizada como importante técnica de manejo localizado da fertilidade do solo.Para tanto, é indispensável à caracterização da variabilidade espacial dos atributos químicos e físicos do solo através de amostragem capaz de representar tais variações. O presente estudo teve por objetivo analisar a correlação entre a condutividade elétrica aparente com os atributos químicos e físicos de um Latossolo Vermelho distroférrico. O trabalho foi realizado em uma propriedade localizada no cerrado brasileiro. Em uma área de 90 hectares foram coletados 181 amostras de solo georeferenciadas, na profundidade de 0,00 – 0,20 metros. Nos mesmos locais de retirada de amostras foram efetuadas leituras de condutividade elétrica aparente do solo. As amostras foram encaminhadas ao laboratório para realização das análises física e química. Selecionou-se, aleatoriamente, 30 pontos amostrais e calculou-se o coeficiente de correlação de Pearson entre as variáveis físicas, químicas e a condutividade elétrica aparente do solo. Não foi observado correlação significativa entre a condutividade elétrica aparente com os atributos físicos do solo. Observou-se correlação positiva e significativa da condutividade elétrica aparente do solo na profundidade de 0,20 m com os atributos químicos fósforo, fósforo remanescente e zinco.

This study aimed to analyze the influence of different sampling grids in determining the spatial variability of physical attributes of a Oxisol. It was used to study an area of approximately 90 hectares, where soil was sampled at depth from 0 to 0.20 meters, using a grid of 2 points per hectare (G1). Each soil sample was composed of four subsamples and obtained using a soil sampler Dutch type. The samples were sent to the laboratory to granulometric analysis. From the initial grid, the area was divided into sampling cells of 2.9 (G2) and 4.7 hectares (G3), and assigned a coordinate value representative of the center of each cell. Classical statistical and geostatistical methods were used to characterize the data and to model the spatial dependence. Spatial dependence was detected for all physical variables of the soil, regardless of the sampling grid used. The utilization of sampling grid of 1 point for each 2.9 hectares, and the sampling cell characterized by 12 subsamples, showed itself capable of detecting the spatial variability of the physical attributes of the soil, guaranteeing reliability in the estimates, even reducing the quantity of points when compared to the densest grid.
