| Abstract | Consistent high yields of commodity crops in the U.S. fosters economic prosperity within the agriculture sector that benefits consumers. A significant challenge in crop production is maintenance of the narrow range of soil moisture and oxygen that maximize the capture of water and nutrients necessary for plant growth and fitness. The oversaturation of soils is caused by varied factors including uneven field contours, poor drainage, and periods of intense rain. In animals and plants, oxygen is es |
