Portable penetrometer for agricultural soil: sensitivity test to identify critical compaction depth
To express the negative effects of soil compaction, some researchers use critical values for soil mechanical strength that severely impair plant growth. The aim of this study was to identify this critical compaction depth, to test the functionality of a new, portable penetrometer developed from a sp...
