Soil compactness is also called soil hardness or soil firmness or soil penetration resistance. The resistance is generally expressed by a metal plunger or probe when pressed into the soil (in Pa). Soil firmness refers to the ability of soil to resist compaction and crushing by external forces, which is one of the aspects of soil properties.
