Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

The soil compaction results in an increase of bulk density of soil which cause the particle to move closer to each other thus resulting in mass per unit volume.

it also reduces the pore percentage in the soil hence decrease the permeability of the soil. lesser the permeability of soil higher is the chances of stagnation of water.
