Field-based soil-texture estimates could replace laboratory analysis
, 2016 Texture is one of the most important and most frequently measured parameters in soil science. It is common knowledge among field experienced soil scientists that soil texture can be well estimated in the field manually with so called “texture-by-feel ...

Cropping system and soil texture shape soil health outcomes and scoring functions
Soil Security, 2021 Inherent soil properties often define the soil's basic functions, but human management can have superimposing impacts on the quality of soil. It is therefore challenging to interpret Soil Health (SH) measurements in the context of a region's soils and ...

Analyzing the soil texture effect on promoting water holding capacity by polyacrylamide [PDF]
, 2008 Polyacrylamide (PAM) has been widely used to improve soil water holding capacity and control infiltration rate of the soils. However, limited studies have been conducted on the interactions between soil water holding capacity and PAM rates in different
