The study looked at how different sizes of soil particles affect the stability of soil aggregates. They found that the type of crops grown in the soil had a big impact on the stability of the aggregates. Larger aggregates had more sand particles, while smaller aggregates had more silt and clay particles. Surprisingly, even though larger aggregates had more sand, it actually made them less stable. On the other hand, silt and clay particles helped to make the aggregates more stable. This means that the size and type of particles in the soil can affect how well the soil holds together, which is important for healthy soil and plant growth.
