The Role of Soil in Farming
Soil 是农业的主要组成部分之一，作物的 fertility 依赖于它。良好的 loam 土壤具有保持 nutrients 的能力，并且可以通过 infiltration 过程吸收水分。
自然的 erosion 和 degradation 可能会破坏土壤质量。然而，通过 composting 和 bioremediation 方法，可以恢复土壤的 arability。
土壤中的 microbial 活动有助于作物的生长。Pedology 专家表示，如果土壤的 cation-exchange 能力更高，土壤会变得更肥沃。在某些地区，salinization 和 calcification 破坏了土壤质量。因此，hydroponics 可以作为一种替代方法，使用富含营养的水代替土壤。
每年 alluvium 积累，增加土壤的 aggradation，通过 humification 过程，土壤中的有机物质丰富了 subterranean 层。因此，确保农业中的 soil management 非常重要。
