Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report of the Hawaii Agricultural Experiment Station, 1934
Continued work on factors affecting the ratio of the moisture equivalents of soils to their permanent wilting percentages indicated that the numerical value of this conventional ratio is, except in rare cases, independent of the textural classification. N 0 significant differences in the ratios were found when Hawaiian soils were diluted with as much as 90 percent coarse silica sand. In still further dilu tion it is probable that the ratios would increase. The large probable errors involved with each of the determinations when large amounts of sand were used, however, made the results unreliable.
