Lack of water is a major limitation to crop production, particularly where roots of cereal crops are not able to access water stored in the subsoil. One way that roots penetrate the subsoil to access water is by following natural biopores – paths created by roots from previous crops, or as burrows from soil fauna. Burying a mesh layer horizontally in the soil can prevent root penetration to the subsoil...
Plant performance under drought stress is not solely defined by an inadequate water supply but by an interaction among many factors, including climatic, edaphic, and biological factors. An important interacting factor affecting root growth, and therefore the ability of a plant to access and take up water, is the soil physical environment. Soil penetration resistance can restrict, or even halt, root...
