Soil compaction is a fundamental process in geotechnical engineering, aimed at enhancing soil density and stability by optimising moisture content and applied compactive effort. The key parameters—the ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Regardless of what you’re growing, spring is an exciting time of year. But it doesn’t come without challenges. Compaction can lead to wet soil that makes it difficult to get in your fields on time for ...

Cover crops like oats, rye, and clover are planted between cash crop seasons to reduce erosion, add organic matter, and ...

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 ...

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 ...
