Urgently need the solution please: The moisture content of a field soil is to be increased to 21% from existing 14%. The density of soil is 1.4 g/cm3 and the depth of effective root zone is 76cm. Calculate the required depth of water to be irrigated.
Sugar cane (root zone depth 1.8 m) is grown in a particular area where the ground water table is 2.0 m below ground. If the size of soil pores is 0.08 mm in diameter and surface tension, o = 0.054 N/m, is the field waterlogged.? If so, determined the vertical location of closed drains below ground spaced at 15 m. Take drainage coefficient as 0.16 cumecs/km², coefficient of permeability as 106 m/s and the impervious stratum to occur at 7.0 m below ground. Assume the capillary rise from ground water table not to interface with the 40 cos 0. root zone of plant. (Hint: capillary rise (H₂) = Ywd
