PermaTill Soil Amendment

As difficult as soil can be to cultivate, few people ever think of it as the fragile growing medium that it is. Soils consist of three space-occupying composition for a soil in good condition for plant growth is approximately 25% water, 25% air and 50% solid particulate matter. When soil is compacted, the soil composition becomes less balanced due to the change in the soil structure. When the soil particles are pressed together, there is less pore space, the soil becomes hard and too dense for easy cultivation and proper root development. As a result the micro activity in the soil is reduced and plant performance is inhibited. Soils are not generic in structure, so why should the methods of conditioning soils be?
