Project
Soil compaction and surface crusting degrade soil structure, reducing aeration and root penetration, and ultimately impacting crop performance. With the trend towards larger farms,

Nitrogen losses from manure come at an economic cost to farmers in the form of lost nutrients, and an environmental cost in the form
Project
Healthy soils provide essential ecosystem services (e.g. nutrient recycling, carbon sequestration, climate regulation, and water filtration) that sustain plants, animals, and humans. The growing
