   Nutrients in the soil are taken up by the plant through its roots, and in particular its root hairs.To be taken up by a plant, a nutrient element must be located near the root surface; however, the supply of nutrients in contact with the root is rapidly depleted within a distance of ca. 2 mm. [14] There are three basic mechanisms whereby nutrient ions dissolved in the soil solution are brought ...

   Amelioration of soil structure leading to a reduction of mineralization by means of protecting soil organic carbon. Liming is known to ameliorate soil structure, as high Ca 2+ concentrations and high ionic strength in the soil solution enhance the flocculation of clay minerals and, in turn, form more stable soil aggregates.

6. Passiflora ligularis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passiflora_ligularis

   Passiflora ligularis thrives in well-drained soils, such as loamy or clayey soil amended with peat and sand to improve aeration and prevent waterlogging [8].It adapts well to both medium-textured (loam) and heavier soils (clay) but shows a preference for lighter, well-structured soils that support better flowering and fruiting [9].

7. Hydrogel agriculture - Wikipedia

   This can increase water-holding and water use (up to 85% for sand), improve soil permeability, reduce the need for irrigation, reduce compaction, soil erosion, and leaching, and improve plant growth. Desertification and lack of water threaten agriculture in many arid and semi-arid regions of the world; these may be mitigated with hydrogels. [1]

8. Soil conditioner - Wikipedia
