Dynamic compaction is a ground improvement method that utilises repeated high‐energy impacts to densify and stabilise loose granular soils. This technique has evolved from traditional field methods ...

Forest soil management and harvesting techniques are evolving to meet the dual challenges of sustained productivity and environmental stewardship. Recent advances have focused on minimising soil ...

Soil compaction is the enemy of all landscape plants. Roots take up water, nutrients, and oxygen from the soil. They also use it to anchor themselves in place against strong West Texas winds. But when ...

Soil compaction might not seem like the most exciting topic, but the proper completion of this step is essential. If soil compaction is not performed adequately, settlement of the soil could occur and ...

Soils damaged by livestock and machinery significantly reduce the uptake of essential nutrients – they will run off the surface instead of being taken down to the roots. And the worm populations that ...

Salinization – the increasing amount of salt content in soil – contributes to land degradation, desertification and subsequently food insecurity. In the Middle East, the main constraint on ...

Compacted soils can typically yield 10-20% lower than healthy soils, which is why growers could benefit from a range of measures to cut compaction risks and avoid costly yield losses. Poor soil ...

Winter is a good time to make garden plans, and one constant issue gardeners face every growing season is weeds. While weeds can be frustrating, they can also be saying more about a yard than you ...

Understanding what is happening below the soil surface can help farmers make more precise agronomic decisions and better target their input investments. New tools are allowing growers and agronomists ...
