What is Soil Compaction and How Can You Fix it? | PhycoTerra is the Solution

Is your farm or land struggling with Soil Compaction? In this video, we discuss what Soil Compaction really is, what causes Soil Compaction and which solutions you can implement today to fix compaction issues.
Soil Compaction occurs when particles in the soil press together and pore space is reduced. There are a few reasons why this may happen, but one of the main factors is the overall wheel traffic that pounds your soil day after day. The amount of weight on your farm has gone up at least double over the past 50 years. As you can imagine, this can severely limit yield and quality goals.
So, what really happens when you compact your soil? When soil is compacted, it decreases the space available for regrowth, reduces oxygen availability and it reduces water penetration and retention. The moral of the story: Compacted soil is bad for farming. Luckily, there are some techniques you can use to help increase the quality and health of your soil so that it can be more resilient to Soil Compaction.
You may be asking: “How can you fix Soil Compaction?” There are a few things you can try today. First, limit wheel traffic if possible. If that is not possible, then the best thing you can do for your soil is to improve its health and quality.

For many, PhycoTerra (phycoterra.com/products/) is the answer to increase soil health and limit Soil Compaction. When you boost the overall quality and health of the soil, you boost the microbes and optimize populations in the soil that form the basic building blocks of soil structure. When the soil structure is good and the microbiome is healthy, your soil develops organic residues that will help it resist compaction and will be available for new growth season after season.
