Relating soil physical properties to other soil properties and crop yields [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Soil physical properties can be related to other soil properties and crop yields, but their evaluations as soil health indicators relating to extensive soil properties and long-term crop yields need further exploration. We evaluated the long-term (14 and

Selected physical and chemical properties of soil under different agroecological zone in Gedeo Zone, Southern Ethiopia

open access: yesHeliyon, 2022
Soil fertility is the ability of the soil to provide favorable chemical, physical and biological characteristics to sustain plant growth. Its physicochemical properties are greatly influenced by altitude and farmer wealth status.

SIMPLE CORRECTION METHOD OF SOIL PENETRATION RESISTANCE FOR SOIL WATER CONTENT [PDF]

open access: yesEngenharia Agrícola, 2022
Soil penetration resistance (PR) assessment is a physical assessment of soil to identify compacted soil layers. Its results are influenced by soil moisture. In this study, a method for correcting PR as a function of soil water content is proposed.
