 OBJECTIVE
LOOSENING OF COMPACTED SOIL
To improve OP root mass formation: Improve nutrient & water uptake & vegetative growth.
To improve rainwater infiltration deep into soil: Retain soil moisture for longer period of time.
Decreases soil bulk density: Plant roots are able to breathe easily.
Easier to do manual holing during planting.
