Answer:

true

Step-by-step explanation:

Particularly, soil air is needed by many of the microorganisms that release plant nutrients to the soil. ... Since plant roots require water and oxygen (from the air in pore spaces), maintaining the balance between root and aeration and soil water availability is a critical aspect of managing crop plants.
