of soil on growth, nutrient uptake, sodium-potassium relationship, and yield of wheat plant. Levels of soil salinity were adjusted to 0.18 (control), 0.3, 0.6, and 0.9% of oven dry soil. Too much causes root disease and wasted water.

The effect of soil temperature and moisture on plant growth and mineralisation of organic residues was investigated using 15N-labelled soybean residues and temperature-controlled tanks in the glasshouse.

To determine effects of soil moisture and humidity index on both plant productivity and diversity of native grasslands on the Loess Plateau, China, a gradient analysis of soil moisture and above- and below-ground properties of plant communities showed that vegetation cover and above- and below-ground biomass were significantly and positively correlated to the levels of soil moisture.

Just as important, water is a delivery mechanism for any nutrients that are not tightly bound to the soil.

Soil moisture and its availability to support plant growth is a primary factor in farm productivity.

Effect of soil moisture content on some other plant aspects A period of high moisture stress during certain growth stadia may have a detrimental effect on various plant aspects of certain vegetable crops, which cannot be compensated for by a low moisture stress later on. Levels of soil moisture were 40, 60, and 80% of capillary capacity.
