First-year cover crop effects on the physical and hydraulic properties of the surface layer in a loamy soil by Villarreal, Rafael, Lozano, Luis Alberto, Melani, Esteban, Polich, Nicolás Guillermo, Salazar, María Paz, Bellora, Guido Lautaro, Soracco, Carlos Germán

“…However, in Argentina, simplification of the crop sequence with high proportion of soybean under NT is a very common practice, leading to soil physical constrains. Crop sequence intensification through the inclusion of cover crops has been reported as an effective tool in the long-term for the enhancement of ecosystems services, improving NT performance. …”

Impact of Physical Object on Scaring of geese : with an agroecological approach towards the issue of geese as a pest in agriculture by Kvarnbäck, Elias

“…The data collected could however not prove that geese are more easily scared/disturbed as they are closer situated to physical objects. Among mixed flocks and greylag goose flocks, proximity to physical objects even made them harder to scare away from agricultural fields.…”
