| Abstract: | Key findings •The water retention and hydraulic conductivity characteristics of two soils used for tomato production were determined using simultaneous in-situ paired measurement of volumetric water content and matric potential. •This field method of determining the soil moisture characteristic was a more convenient method than manual gravimetric sampling and could be used widely to assist optimisation of irrigation design. |
