Influence of biological fertilizer and plant cover in the physical properties of soil
The physical properties of the soil affect the root growth of the plants, which depending on the restriction level, the culture yield is reduced. The goal of this study was to identify the effects of biological fertilizer and soil cover on soil physical properties. This study was carried out in two...
