Influence of organic manure amendments on water repellency, water entry value, and water retention of soil samples from a tropical Ultisol [PDF]
Journal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2016 Lowered stability of soil aggregates governed by insufficient organic matter levels has become a major concern in Sri Lanka. Although the use of organic manure with water repellent properties lowers the wetting rates and improves the stability of soil ...
