Summary
Landwirtschaftlich genutzter Boden ist durch das Bearbeiten und Befahren zahlreichen Belastungen ausgesetzt. Nach einer strukturschädigenden Massnahme kann eine vollständige Regeneration des Bodens mehrere Jahre dauern.
Die Behebung von Bodenschäden wird in dieser Broschüre nicht behandelt; sie zeigt aber auf, wie Zustand und Belastbarkeit des Bodens mithilfe von Hand-Grabwerkzeuge und den eigenen Sinnen einfach beurteilt werden kann.
Summary translation
Due to treatment and machinery, farmland is exposed to high mechanical stress. After a structure damaging procedure, the full regeneration of the soil can take several years.
Reversing soil damages is not a topic covered in this brochure; however, it is shown how the condition and capacity of soils can be assessed by using manual digging tools and our own senses.
