Tracks certainly dont eliminate compaction, and they usually cost substantially more than wheels, but research at The Ohio State University shows there are several specific applications where tracks offer a productivity or yield advantage in the old tracks-versus-wheels debate.

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. Not so, at least not when it comes to deep compaction impacts.

Its true that many products and practices widely adopted over the past 100 years intended to solve a problem have created new problems, sometimes more challenging than the ones they were designed to conquer. of new cropland areas produced yields below the national average, with a mean yield deficit of 6.5%. Unfortunately, 69.5%

farmers are using a new solution to treat soil compaction – a problem that affects over 68 million acres of farmland and significantly reduces crop yields. Unpac® , developed by Locus Agriculture, is an innovative biosurfactant soil amendment that successfully breaks up soil compaction through fermentation-derived technology.

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. How to identify nutrient deficiencies in plants? What causes nutrient deficiencies?

While there may be concerns about potential short-term yield reductions during this transition, these practices offer long-term benefits for soil health, environmental sustainability, and overall farm resilience. With reduced disturbance, their populations can flourish, contributing to improved soil structure and fertility.
