The organization of the article seems broken down into subtopics rather than a complete synopsis of tilth. The Introduction is fairly easy to understand and it does a decent job at introducing the subject, but i would like to expand the idea of "good tilth" in later sections on the page. The introduction also should mention the importance of tilling and the effects in more detail. The article needs more references, one of the references is heavily used, which can create a concentrated bias. More diversity in evidence and references will give the article a better feel of knowledge communicated. The 2 references used are appropriate and reliable(one from colorado state university and the other is from SARE). The Tillage and Biological sections under "management" can be greatly expanded, especially the Tillage section. Tilth has a lot to do with the style of tilling used on agricultural land, as it can be the driving force for tilth quality. This content section could be improved with more sources and to communicate a more detailed soil consequences from biological and mechanical processes. The only thing missing is a figure, but I'm not so sure that one is necessary for this topic. The coverage is unbiased, just needs more detail and references about effecting topics.

enmeshment: soil fungi network "demonstrated soil fungi to play a major role in soil aggregation when they nourish and proliferate on organic amendments." "our study indicates that rhizodeposition (soluble exudates and dead root material) stimulates fungal development to a larger extent than manure application."

MENTION SOIL TRAFFIC WITH TILLING

Add new section "tilth-forming processes"
