| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses potential benefits of aeration, including to "get air into the soil structure thus creating healthy aerobic conditions"; "create more space between individual soil particles"; "improve surface drainage and soil permeability"; "destroy thatch through a process of both direct removal and elimination of the stagnation that encourages thatch formation"; and "facilitate the absorption and incorporation of soil ameliorants into the root zone and improving the efficiency of top dressing and over-seeding." Discusses different methods of aeration and the different tools and equipment used. Profiles several aeration machines, including the Koro Scarifier, the Verti-Drain, Ecosolve's Drill n Fill, and Groundsman Industries' Core Collection System. |
