HT SOIL 01

Digital Soil Hardness Tester is used to measure the soil hardness/ compaction. Compacting soil can prevent water infiltration, which reduces fertilizer utilization rate by soil, affect plant growth rate, and even lead to crop yield reduction.

Features:

  • Easy to carry on field with ease of assembly
  • Backlit display with low battery indication
  • Max data hold
  • Convertible units: kg, g, lb, N
  • Type Hardness Testers

Applications:

Compacting soil can prevent water infiltration, which reduces fertilizer utilization rate by soil, affect plant growth rate, and even lead to crop yield reduction. Hence, testing soil compaction is important for guiding agricultural production, a good indicator for arable land, useful for soil property survey, soil permeability, aeration, domestic, industrial and civil construction, highways, railways, road, drainage, oil pipeline, water conservancy, dam construction, irrigation canal, reservoir construction, airport runway engineering, etc.


Measuring Principle:

This is a universal type penetrometer, which measures the penetration resistance of the soil to estimate compaction coefficient, which co-relates to the soil hardness parameter.
