Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book emphasizes the critical role of soil water content in agriculture, highlighting its influence on soil properties and the necessity for precise moisture measurement in irrigation practices. It addresses the challenges posed by inefficient irrigation, which can lead to water and nutrient runoff, and advocates for sustainable management practices. The text critiques current irrigation methods for lacking a basis in plant water needs and for insufficient documentation of soil moisture measurements. Acknowledgments are made to researchers contributing to the field.
