Abstract/Contents: | States that "soil pores are the physical key to growing good turf" and defines soil texture as "the percentage of sand, silt, and clay in the soil". Defines structure as "the arrangement of these particles along with organic matter into soil aggregates." Discusses several important chemical properties of soil and addresses fertilizer programs that are affected by soil texture. |
