soil tension?

In the process of crop growth, soil moisture has an important influence on its water absorption and nutrient utilization. Real-time monitoring of soil moisture and mastering the law of soil moisture changes can not only provide a basis for timely and reasonable irrigation, but also improve crop yields and reduce the occurrence of pests and diseases. Soil tension, or soil water potential, is an indicator of soil moisture intensity. Its size is closely related to the fluidity and penetration depth of soil water, the effectiveness and difficulty of plant absorption of soil water. At the same time, it can indirectly reflect the soil moisture. Generally speaking, the smaller the soil moisture, the greater the soil tension and the stronger the suction to water, making it difficult for plants to absorb water in the soil; the greater the soil moisture, the weaker the soil's suction to water, and the easier it is for crops to absorb water from the soil.

Soil Tension Sensor

in modern agriculture, the role of soil tension sensor is very significant. The soil tension sensor can collect the dynamic soil moisture content of the planted crops. After collecting the data, farmers can carry out more accurate irrigation measures according to the growth changes of the crops. It can not only record the soil tension change data, but also help growers to continuously supplement the soil environment data of crop types, which is of great significance for improving crop varieties and improving crop quality and yield.
