Using the GrassVESS tool farmers can easily score the structural quality of their soils and identify problems, such as compaction, which can lead to poor crop rooting, reduced yields, drainage problems and increased nutrient losses and emissions. Structural quality (Sq) and Root-mat (Rm) scores indicate the impact of land management on soil structure at different soil depths. This can help in making management decisions. Low scores indicate that land management is not negatively impacting soil structure. High scores indicate that management is negatively impacting soil structure and changes in management may be necessary.
