A number of factors affect the permeability of soils, from particle size, impurities in the water, void ratio, the degree of saturation, and adsorbed water, to entrapped air and organic material. == Background == Soil aeration maintains oxygen levels in the plants' root zone, needed for microbial and root respiration, and important to plant growth.
