Conectare
soil porosity
soil porosity
[substantiv]

the fraction of soil volume made up of open spaces or pores between particles

Ex: High soil porosity improves water infiltration and root growth. 
Închide
Conectare
field capacity
field capacity
[substantiv]

the maximum amount of water a soil can retain against gravity after excess drainage

Ex: Field capacity determines how much irrigation water a soil can hold for crops. 
Închide

Conectare
subsurface drainage

a system that removes excess water from beneath the soil surface to prevent root damage and waterlogging

Ex: Subsurface drainage uses perforated pipes buried underground to carry away excess moisture.
