Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book describes moisture, temperature, and soluble salt content in soil, measured using electrical instruments. The author explains this electrical method in detail, describing the design and use of a soil hygrometer, electrolytic bridge, and temperature coils. Electrodes, temperature cells, splices, and insulation are also covered. The text provides guidelines for using the instruments to determine moisture and temperature in the field, including considerations for the composition of the soil. The technique is framed within a discussion of the importance of soil conditions in agriculture, particularly in irrigation and greenhouse management. Electrical instruments offer a significant advance over previous methods of soil investigation because they are less labor-intensive, less prone to error, and can be used to efficiently monitor the soil conditions that are necessary for healthy plant growth.
