The Soil Compaction Testers give quick answers to the
questions you need to ask for SPS Cross-Compliance* and
about your tillage programme and field conditions:
- Is your soil compacted?
- How severely and at what depth
- How deep are you tilling?
- How deep do you need to till?
- How deep can your roots grow?
Compaction causes serious problems on many soils:
- Require up to 90% more power (& more fuel) to till
- Cause poor root development and big yield reduction
- Causes poor natural water movement and uptake
- Poor Fertiliser & Pesticide utilisation
