Portable Analog Soil Compaction Meter Analog Soil Hardness Tester India

Compaction of agricultural soils is a concern to many agricultural soil scientists and farmers, since soil compaction due to heavy field traffic may reduce plant growth. This may be observed clearly in wheel ruts. However, it cannot be stated that all compaction reduces plant growth. The topic is complicated, because it involves the response of the plant to the soil structure and the availability of water. Thus, it requires knowledge about the stress distribution in the soil below the applied load and knowledge about the resulting soil deformation and shearing

Weiber offers a unique hand held device to measure the soil compactness or hardness accurately. The delive is accurate and portable, ideal for field measurements. Our soil hardness tester uses the pressure gauge of the theoretical value Kg/Cm2, to directly measure of soil hardness value.

• Ascertaining Soil Permeability
• Aeration
• Operation Research

By simply pushing the tester into the ground at different locations, this convenient, practical tool will help you find problem areas that can inhibit root growth and reduce yields. Just check the gauge to find readings of the pressure required to penetrate your soil. Maximize your success for less with the Soil Compaction Tester.

The range of this equipment is : 0 ~ 40 mm; 0 ~ 500 Kg/Cm2
