Abstract

"Generally, a good soil for crop production contains about 25 percent water and 25 percent air by volume. This 50 percent is referred to as pore space. The remaining 50 percent consists of soil particles. Anything (for example, tillage and wheel traffic) that reduces pore space results in a dense soil with poor internal drainage and reduced aeration."--First page.
