Abstract
A method based upon measuring the conductivity of the leachate (LC) from mechanically conditioned foragewas evaluated and used as an index for quantifying the extent of mechanical damage caused by various mechanicaltreatments. Relative to a Surface Area Index (SAI) method previously used, the LC method was simple, fast, and could becompleted with readily available laboratory equipment (orbital shaker table, Waring blender, and conductivity meter).The LC method differentiated various mechanical conditioning treatments more often and with greater sensitivity than theSAI method. The consistency of different Waring blender treatments was assessed to determine if it could be used as astandard treatment for normalizing leachate conductivity values.
