   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_impact_of...

   There is a trend towards an increase in the number of cultivators who are using sustainable methods for growing cannabis. To improve the soil, they mainly use: special AACT inoculations, growing companion crops, and even grazing goats, which loosen and aerate the soil with their hooves, and their droppings are used as a natural fertilizer.

3. Organic lawn management - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_lawn_management

   A primary element of organic lawn management is the use of compost [2] and compost tea to reduce the need for fertilization and to encourage healthy soil that enables turf to resist pests. [3] A second element is mowing tall (3" – 4") to suppress weeds and encourage deep grass roots, [4] and leaving grass clippings and leaves on the lawn as ...

4. Agricultural wastewater treatment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agricultural_wastewater...

   Soil washed off fields is the largest source of agricultural pollution in the United States. Excess sediment causes high levels of turbidity in water bodies, which can inhibit growth of aquatic plants, clog fish gills and smother animal larvae. [6] Farmers may utilize erosion controls to reduce runoff flows and retain soil on their fields ...

5. Seaweed fertiliser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seaweed_fertiliser

   Clay soils that lack organic matter and porosity benefit from the humic acid and soluble alginates found in seaweed. [1] [62] These compounds bond with metallic radicals which cause the clay particles to aggregate, thereby improving the texture, aeration, and retention of the soil by stimulating clay disaggregation. [62]

6. Claypan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claypan

   The formation of the claypan relates to a lack of vegetation coverage, soil particle size distribution, and high rainfall. The lack of vegetation coverage makes soil become more susceptible to raindrop attacks. When the raindrops hit on bare soil with high energy, the fine sand, silt, and clay particles are re-arranged to plug all the pore spaces.

7. Ultisol - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultisol

   The use of soil tests, coupled with the corresponding provisions, can alleviate issues of nutrition and irrigation that can result from non porous Ultisol. [4] Soil tests help indicate the pH, and red clay soil typically has a low pH. [5] The addition of lime is used to help to increase the pH in soil and can help increase the pH in Ultisol as ...
