A Great Day for Soil Compaction Research

In-ground sensors and 3D x-ray imaging to measure the difference between high and low pressure tractor tires on soil compaction. At this site, we had different soil textures and organic matter contents. This research helps understand the benefits of tire pressure adjustment and good soil management on mitigating soil compaction.
