AP Environmental Science: Soil Compaction in Agriculture


Product # IS9907

When it comes to agriculture, crop yields depend heavily on the type and condition of the soil on the land being used for cultivation. In efforts to alter the soil and improve crop yields, the use of agricultural machinery has exponentially increased in the last century. However, the heavy machinery has lead to compacted soils that inhibit crop growth. Simulate the effects of soil compaction on plant growth to exampine the impacts of agricultural mechanization on the environment.
