Baby Stroller - Plowing?

Question

Hello, Regarding the labor of plowing on Shabbat, when a person places a ladder on the ground or passes with a baby stroller over dry soil and creates a depression in the ground — when is it considered that his work only compacts the soil and is permitted, and when is it called loosening the soil, which is forbidden?

Answer

Hello 

If the soil loosens - it is considered plowing. 

And if the soil compacts - it is not considered plowing.
