Basics
- Non-Inversion tillage below a depth of 14 inches (Check other definitions/minimum depth)
- Reduces Soil Compaction and allows for more root growth and water infiltration / reduces runoff
Internal Links
- Subsoiler (A Form of Tractor Town Agricultural Equipment used for this)
- Broadfork (A Manual Tool for Subsoiling, works in a similar manner to steeping on a shovel to "get it going", then using that leverage to lift a square of all soil + vegetation above that depth)
- Keyline Plowing (The application of this technique to Keyline Design ) (Thus can also be known as Keyline Subsoiling / Contour Subsoiling )
