Description
Soil moisture is the water stored in the soil. Soil temperature is the warmth of the soil. Soil electrical conductivity (EC) is the level of salts in soil (salinity). These parameters are very important indicators of soil fertility and health, which ultimately affects the plants. When there is a high soil salinity, the salt will make it difficult for the plants to consume water even though there is a high moisture level in the soil. This will ultimately “burn” the plants. Meanwhile, too much moisture in the soil is not only bad for the plants but also wastes water and adds extra burdens to our planet earth.
Plants grow best at their preferred environment, at the optimal ranges of soil moisture, temperature, and EC level. It’s important for growers to get access to the data of these parameters, to get insights on what actions need to be taken to ensure plant health and higher yield.
