Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

If a sandy soil has a Field Capacity of 15% and a Wilting Point of 5%, evaluate how a shift in climate reducing rainfall may impact Available Water.

💡 Hint: What would happen if FC decreases too due to less rain?

Question 2

In a controlled experiment, a particular plant was unable to extract water below 7% moisture content, coinciding with its PWP. Discuss implications for an irrigation schedule based on this PWP.

💡 Hint: What strategies can they implement to manage irrigation?
