Soil compaction causes substantial reduction in agriculture productivity and has always
been of great distress for farmers. Intensive agriculture seems to be more crucial in causing …

Compaction of agricultural soils is a concern for many agricultural soil scientists and farmers
since soil compaction, due to heavy field traffic, has resulted in yield reduction of most …

Soil compaction is one of the major problems facing modern agriculture. Overuse of
machinery, intensive cropping, short crop rotations, intensive grazing and inappropriate soil …

Biochar is considered to enhance numerous soil ecosystem services, but whether it
alleviates soil compaction is not well known. This paper: 1) synthesizes the biochar impacts …

Careful soil management is the key to sustainable agricultural production. Tillage practices
are critical components of soil management systems which significantly affect soil …

Tillage management and manure application are among the important factors affecting soil
physical properties and crop yield. A 2-year field experiment was conducted on a silty clay …

For this study penetration resistance (PR) was measured within the profiles of four Oxisols
for a wide range of water contents (θ) and bulk densities. Obtained data were utilized to …

Soil bulk density (ρb) is required to estimate, evaluate, and calculate many physical soil
properties and processes and is essential to convert data from weight‐based to volume‐and …

Increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) is vital in terms of improving the soil physical and
mechanical properties related to conditions for tillage and traffic, and to crop development in …

Degradation of soil quality is a major concern due to the scarcity of fertile land, and needs to
be properly addressed in the environmental assessment of agro-forestry systems. This …
