Question

Choose the correct sequence of soil moisture constants for a soil after a heavy rain if no further water is added.

• A. Field capacity, Available water, Permanent wilting point, Ultimate wilting point, Saturation capacity
• B. Available water, Saturation capacity, Permanent wilting point, Field capacity, Ultimate wilting point
• C. Saturation capacity, Field capacity, Permanent wilting point, Ultimate wilting point, Available water
• D. Saturation capacity, Field capacity, Available water, Permanent wilting point, Ultimate wilting point

Hint:

Moisture condition after rainfall decreases in the following order: \[ \boxed{ \text{Saturation} > \text{Field Capacity} > \text{Available Water} > \text{Permanent Wilting Point} > \text{Ultimate Wilting Point} } \]

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D
