 | Irrigation Management Monitoring your irrigation makes a big difference |
The Neutron Probe
Soiltest uses the neutron hydroprobe for moisture monitoring and irrigation scheduling. The Hydroprobe is an effective tool for monitoring moisture and contaminiation movement in the vadose zone to protect groundwater quality. Water content of soil at depths below the surface are measured with this device.
EchoProbe Soiltest is the Washington representative for Echo Products. We have found this equipment essential for unattended, continuous monitoring of both commercial production and land application fields. This line of inovative environmental monitoring equipment includes:
Capacitance soil moisture measurement probes
Data loggers with telemetry capabilities
Automatic rain gages
Temperature probes
Drain Gage lysimeters
Leaf wetness, and more
