The Field Capacity of a Soil Depends Upon

Answer: (c) Both A and B

The field capacity of a soil depends upon capillary tension in soil and porosity of soil.

Solution

Field Capacity:- It is defined as the amount of water content left in the soil after excess water gets drained off due to gravity and also the rate of downward movement is decreased.

• Field capacity is always expressed in percentage.
• Field capacity is always less than or equal to saturation capacity.
• The field capacity of a soil depends upon the capillary tension in soil and Porosity of soil.
