Soil researchers are interested in a gaining better understanding of the soil system state by analyzing its properties and their dynamics in time as well as in relation to land use change. Tilled, abandoned, and forest soils were assessed regarding attribute–response relationships for the bulk density (BD), total porosity (TP), volumetric moisture (θv), and penetration resistance (PR) with the use of the interquartile ratio (IRI) integrated into a resilience formula and Shannon entropy indices. The IRI results differentiated soil properties according to agrotechnics (wheel track vs. between wheels) and the state of the system (tilled vs. abandoned vineyard). Entropy (En) indicated a high level of uncertainty for PR. The linear regression applied to the pairs of BD-TP, TP-θv, and PR-θv showed better results for the IRI weight (IRI_weight) compared to the entropy weight (En_weight) for the soil between the wheels. The soil of the abandoned vineyard showed a faster tendency toward resilience that was more pronounced in the tilled wheel tracks than in the area between the wheels. The IRI can thus be an alternative to entropy in the evaluation of the response of some soil properties according to their use. When integrated into a resilience formula, the IRI can estimate the dynamics of soil properties for abandoned land compared to reference soil.

Agricultural intensification and increasing climatic variability can substantially affect ar-thropod communities and the ecological functions they provide in agroecosystems. This study evaluated coleopteran diversity, abundance, and community structure in wheat, maize, and sunflower under chemically treated (V1) and untreated low-input (V2) man-agement regimes during two climatically contrasting growing seasons (2024–2025). Col-eopterans were sampled using pitfall traps, sweep netting, and manual collection, and community responses were characterized using species richness, total abundance, Shan-non–Wiener diversity, Pielou’s evenness, and Bray–Curtis-based non-metric multidimen-sional scaling (NMDS). Untreated plots consistently supported greater species richness, total abundance, and Shannon diversity across all crop × year combinations, although the magnitude of these differences varied among crops and growing seasons. Evenness showed a less consistent response, reflecting variation in species dominance among as-semblages. The warmer and drier conditions recorded in 2024 contrasted with the gener-ally cooler and wetter conditions of 2025, while interannual changes in coleopteran diver-sity were crop dependent. NMDS ordination (stress = 0.112) revealed differentiation among crop × management × year assemblages, indicating that community composition varied in relation to crop type, management regime, and growing season rather than showing a simple separation attributable to management alone. Overall, the results high-light the importance of considering biodiversity conservation, interannual climatic varia-bility, and crop-specific responses when developing adaptive integrated pest management strategies.
