Abstract
Effect of soft rock as soil amendment on soil cone penetration resistance and bulk density was investigated in a field experiment in a sandy soil in Mu Us Sandy Land of China in 2012-2014. Treatments includes four rates of soft rock to sandy soil in volume (0:1, 1:1, 1:2 and 1:5) were applied only in the first year. Adding soft rock amendments decreased soil cone penetration resistance and bulk density. The treatment with rate of 1:1 (soft rock to sandy soil in volume) had the greatest effect on soil cone penetration resistance and bulk density averaged over the three years.
