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 ...

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 ...

For a successful outcome, each phase of the work – soil stabilisation, compaction, grading, material delivery, paving – must proceed with maximum efficiency and always within challenging time ...

From mild winters to heavier equipment, farmers face several uncontrollable factors, adding layers to the soil compaction problem. “Our winters have been milder, and snowfall has been lighter in ...

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 ...

June 19, 2017 - Soil compaction is a global threat to soil ecosystem services, causing tremendous costs to society. The costs of soil compaction are borne by the cumulative loss of soil functionality ...

This year in South Dakota many areas have received high amounts of rainfall during the summer. This has led to portions of fields being wet particularly in the northeastern part of the state. Soils ...

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 ...
