Soil Available Waterholding Capacity

Available waterholding capacity refers to the potential volume (on a per unit area basis, expressed in mm) within the rootzone of a soil that can be filled by rainfall or irrigation, and is available to plants (i.e. not including moisture help by soil matrix suction). Assessments are based on the rootzone of wheat plants. Mapping shows the estimated average available waterholding capacity, while detailed proportion data are supplied for calculating respective areas of each available waterholding class (spatial data statistics).
