The fact sheets listed in this section aims to give a general background of a range of topics relating to healthy soils. Some provide information on a specific soil quality indicator (e.g. microbial biomass), while others give instructions on how to measure and interpret some soil analysis results (e.g. bulk density). There are also a number of fact sheets introducing different farm management strategies for those farmers coming to terms with difficult soil properties, such as compaction or waterlogging.
While these fact sheets give a concise introduction to each topic, more detailed information can be gained through the “Further Reading and References” section at the end of each fact sheet.
