Optimizing plant nutrition is a fundamental aspect of successful crop production. Nutrient deficiencies can significantly impact crop health and productivity, leading to reduced yields and compromised plant defenses against diseases and pests. Causes: Boron deficiency commonly occurs in sandy, leached, or acidic soils.

The challenges associated with mud on livestock farms, particularly cattle and horse farms, need to be addressed because their health affects production goals. Mud in the winter will result in soil compaction later. Consider unrolling hay bales when conditions permit, this will prevent soil compaction and loss of forage.

Not so, at least not when it comes to deep compaction impacts. Air pockets and macropores in soil structure help move water down the soil profile, and where water goes, so do the nutrients. Compacted soils restrict root growth, oxygen, and nutrient and water movement, ultimately restricting yield potential.
