🌱 Soil hardpan, a compacted soil layer, poses significant challenges for farmers by restricting root growth, water infiltration, and nutrient access. Common in clay-rich soils, hardpan forms due to repeated machinery use and frequent tillage. Solutions like subsoiling, deep-rooted cover crops, and reduced tillage can effectively break up hardpan, while sustainable practices such as controlled traffic farming and adding organic matter help prevent its formation.
