Effect of Soil Conditioning on Soil Penetration Resistance and Traction Power Demand of Ploughing

Soil compaction and degradation due to improper tillage are problems involving significant natural and economic damages. On compacted soils, suitable cultivation can be implemented only with higher energy and traction force input. In our study, the effect of a soil conditioner (Neosol) was examined...
