| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the advantageous incorporation of anecic earthworms- that is, organic matter incorporating earthworms - into orchard soils. Explains that such a species of earthworms can help speed up decomposition of surface mulch and mix nutrient-filled surface residues into the soil, as a function of the species' consumption cycle. |
