Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have a clay soil with a field capacity of 30% and a wilting point of 15%. If your MAD is set at 50%, how much moisture can you potentially allow to deplete before irrigation?

💡 Hint: Think about the difference between field capacity and wilting point.

Question 2

A farmer uses sandy soil for growing vegetables and has established a MAD of 30%. If it rains and brings soil moisture to field capacity of 20%, is the farmer allowing adequate depletion for irrigation?

💡 Hint: Consider what the MAD allows versus the current moisture levels.
