Earthworms and soil fertility

Plant and Soil, 1984
Earthworms redistribute organic materials within the soil, increase soil penetrability and, und certain conditions, influence ion transport in soils. Root distribution may be modified and microbial activity increased by their burrowing and feeding activities. Earthworms influence the supply of nutrients in several ways. Not only is earthworm tissue and

Earthworms and soil fertility

1972
The activities of earthworms that have most influence on soil structure are: (1) Ingestion of soil, partial breakdown of organic matter, intimate mixing of these fractions, and ejection of this material as surface or sub-surface casts. (2) Burrowing through the soil and bringing subsoil to the surface.
