An intensive property is a physical quantity whose value does not depend on the amount of the substance for which it is measured. For example‚ the temperature of a system in thermal equilibrium is the same as the temperature of any part of it. If the system is divided the temperature of each subsystem is identical. The same applies to the density of a homogeneous system: if the system is divided in half‚ the mass and the volume change in the identical ratio and the density remains unchanged. According

Hard span obstructs root’s downward proliferation and restricts root growth of crops (of crops that have vertical root growth). With sub-soiling‚ the needed soil depth‚ at least 80cm will be met . With sub-soiling‚ we can break hard pan without
