Soil moisture can be measured using a variety of different techniques: gravimetric, nuclear, electromagnetic, tensiometric, hygrometric, among others. This sensor uses a capacitive method that exploits the dielectric properties of water in soil. Accurate measurement of soil water content is essential for applications in agronomy and botany - where the under- and over-watering of soil can result in ineffective or wasted resources.
