Soil Structure Aggregation

Soils may be non-structured (e.g., single grain or massive) or consist of naturally formed units known as peds or aggregates.The initial stage in the formation of soil structure is the process of flocculation.. . . . . . Individual colloids typically exhibit a net negative charge which results in a
