   Soil aeration is the mechanism of improving the exchange of gases between the atmosphere and soil. Through soil microbial activity and plant root respiration, certain gases such as oxygen will be depleted in the soil, while others, such as carbon dioxide, will build up in the soil. [1] Lack of oxygen in the soil can impact plant growth.

   Aeration (also called aerification or aeriation) is the process by which air is circulated through, mixed with or dissolved in a liquid or other substances that act as a fluid (such as soil). Aeration processes create additional surface area in the mixture, allowing greater chemical or suspension reactions.

9. Tillage - Wikipedia

   Soil loses nutrients, like nitrogen and fertilizer, and its ability to store water. [17] [note 2] Decreases the water infiltration rate of soil. (Results in more runoff and erosion [17] [19] as the soil absorbs water more slowly than before) [note 3] Tilling the soil results in dislodging the cohesiveness of the soil particles, thereby inducing ...
