Abstract, Journal of Civil Engineering and Architecture, 2020

Compaction due to urbanization and farm operations disrupt natural soil profiles, increase impervious surface areas and decrease vegetative cover. These disruptions increase storm-water runoff at the expense of ground water recharge, degrading water quality and impairing aquatic habitats. A completely randomized experiment was conducted at the OSU/South Centers, Piketon, OH to assess the effect of Daikon radish (Raphanus sativus L. var. oleiferus) on alleviating compaction. Treatments included long-term tillage, long-term no-till (NT) and a fallow soil compacted with farm equipment with and without Daikon radish. Radish was sown in mid-August and plants were winter-killed at the onset of first frost when the temperature dropped to -2.22 °C (28 °F). To assess progress in compaction alleviation, a model was developed to extrapolate information on soil porosity as an indicator of hydrological properties of soils. Earthworm population dynamics were also considered as a bio-indicator of compaction alleviation. The adoption of radish used as bio-drilling, alleviated overall compaction by 40% with reductions ranging from 90% at 0-13 cm to 30% at 56-64 cm depth. The fallow compacted soil with radish had the highest population of earthworm with total body mass of 3.6 kg·m-3, followed by NT at 0.8 kg·m-3, and till at 0.4 kg·m-3 (p < 0.05). Mean values of soil porosity were increased by 44% with radish compared to the fields without radish. This increase ranged from 71% in the upper soil depths (0-13 cm depth) to 25% in the lower depths (56-64 cm depths). Use of bio-drilling has potential to synergistically alleviate the effect of compaction, minimize flash-flooding and improve water quality.

Key words: Bio-drilling, bio-indicator, decomposition, compaction, porosity, Daikon Radish (Raphanus sativus L. var. oleiferus), earthworm population dynamics, NT, conventionally tilled (CT), penetration resistance.
