Satellite Symposium 1: Optimisation
Description
It has been well known that higher plant density provides more effective protection for soils. However, the influence of different vegetation on the soil properties has been less well recognised. The high density of grass communities, a high number of plant species and density of roots have advantageous effects on soil properties and conditions, particularly on the organic matter cycling and structure of soils.
