Application of Electrical Capacitance Method for Prediction of Plant Root Mass and Activity in Field-Grown Crops
The root electrical capacitance (CR) method is suitable for assessing root growth and activity, but soil water content (SWC) strongly influences the measurement results. This study aimed to adapt the method for field monitoring by evaluating the effect of SWC on root capacitance to ensure the compar...
