Rubber tracks offer a larger soil surface and, therefore, a lower soil stress than pneumatic tyres. Compaction of the topsoil layer is therefore reduced; this means that rubber tracks are more soil-friendly than pneumatic tyres. The differences between rubber tracks and pneumatic tyres are also measurable through deeper soil analysis. It has been demonstrated that the soil is less compact at all depths after rubber tracks have been used, in comparison with pneumatic tyres.
