Digital soil moisture probes come in varying lengths and depths. This allows information to be collected at varying depths in the soil, dependent on what data is being analysed.
In addition to soil moisture, advanced soil moisture probes can also measure
- pH
- Temperature
- Salinity
- Nutrients (e.g. nitrogen, phosphate and phosphorous)
Which Probe to choose?
Choosing the right soil moisture probe can sometimes be difficult. For some handy hints, watch the video below from Agriculture Victoria.
