Do agricultural grasses bred for improved root systems provide resilience to machinery‐derived soil compaction?
Abstract The increasing frequency of droughts and floods on grasslands, due to climate change, increases the risk of soil compaction. Soil compaction affects both soil and forage productivity. Differing grasses may counteract some effects of compaction due to differences in their root architecture a...
