THE ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY OF SOIL MEASUREMENT WITH THE VIRTUAL INSTRUMENTATION

Abstract

The paper followed the soil electrical conductivity study, in order to obtain the tracing map of the soil conductivity, usable for the farming management. This kind of maps permits to stand out the different electrical conductivity areas, this soil property, finally, having connection with the agricultural productivity. The measuring methods could be simplified using a virtual instrument who permits the introducing in soil of an electric voltage, via two external electrodes, and also the voltage variation reading through the two internal electrodes, in line with the first two external electrodes.
