SOIL MOISTURE
AND MANAGEMENT
Growing Crops Use a Great Deal
of Water.
SUPPLY NOT ALL AVAILABLE.
By P. B. Parker. Department Of
Agronomy, ruiverslly of Nebraska.
Loam and silt loam soils such as
are common iu the corn belt region
contain 12 or 14 inches of water lu
the Upper lour feet of soil when crops
ire growing most rapidly. One cubic
toot of silt or clay loam soil contain
Ing the proper amount or moisture for
good glowing and tilling conditions
contains about two aud one-bail gal
Ions of wad r.
The water contnlned in a soil la
not all available for crop growth, in
Other woids crops will wilt when
there is considerable water yet in the
soil. In the month of August, 1909.
when the coin was wilted badly and
beginning to dry prematurely, tbe
Upper four toot of soil contained LB
or lii per cent of water, which Is
equivalent to 7 or 8 inches of rain
lall. The unavailable water in u
cubic loot of loam soil Is equal to
about one gallon.
Tin atOOUIlt of available water con
tained In a soil, therefore, is the dif
ference between the total water cou
tent aud the unavailable water which
would amount to about 5 or 6 inches
in tbe CMC of the loam and silt loam
si ils mentioned above This Is equi
valent to about one and one-half gal
lons per cubic foot.
Crop Requirements for Soil Moisture.
Glowing crops use a great deal of
water. According to good authority
from L"u to uOO pounds of water are
required lor ever pound of dry mat
ter produced. I'oi instance, If the
wheat crop produced two tons of dry
Wheat and straw per acre it transpires
or evaporates (100 tons of water per
acre during the growing season on the
basis of 100 pounds of water for every
pound of dry matter produced. This
amount of water is equivalent to 5 or
t inches of rainfall.
The available moisture content of
loam and silt loam soli in the upper
four foot under good growing condl
lions and the wheat crop require
ments for wnter are therefore very
similar in tUUOUIltS, This does not
mean, however, thai the wheat crop
can reach maturity and produce
maximum yields without more wnter
than thai contained in the soli whuu
the crop was (-own, even if It con
tained enough water for best growing
conditions at I bat time
As stated before, tho crop grows
boat when the soil contains the op
t'niiim content of moisture and the
growCb. is gradually less as the wnter
i i Dteatt is reduced below this point,
lu order that the crop may make Its
best growth at all stages of its grow
ing per.oi, it is necessary that the
soil in which Its roots art growing be
supplied with the optimum molstura
content at all times.
There are several factors which
tend to maintain this ttatO of equi
librium between tile growing plants
and the availan'p moisture In the root
zene. Some authorities put great
ttiess upon the repl uilshlng supply
of moisture which moves up papilla 1 1
ly Irom below the ;-oot sone, thus en
abling the plant roots to have a
constant supply of witr continually
at their disposal, 'or as the soli
moisture la reduced n the vicinity o.
the growing roots the water from be-!-w
or otherwise mrroiinding the
roots moves toward the dryer soil.
rVom this viewpoint the depth to
bottom water Is quite r.n Important
consideration.
Moisture Content of Soils.
i lie continual iiiik m-'iit of grow
ing plant roots no OOUht is a signi
ficant factor in cons'-l ripg the water
Upply for crop purpos-s. for as the

sorbing portions arc contlniiall v
reaching out Into new regions where
the moisture supply has not as yet
iieen greatly reduced and by the time
fhe wheat crop reaches lull maturity
the upper four feet of soil are pretty
well occupied with wheat roots. When
the wheat crop is nearing its full
growth, but yet growln? most active
Iv, its large area or roots permeating
(he upper four feet of silt loam soils
greatly reduce the moisture content
in tb root rone. The crop require
ments are comparatively large at this
stage The moisture content !n the
upper four feet of soil about the
ruddle of June is ordinarily very near
lbs limit of the available supply. The
Jarniera of Nebraska and surrounding
Hues are fortunate in that more rain
tails aa a usual thing during the
mouths of lune and tfuly than am
uiher two months or the year. The
crop yields have been greatly reduced
many times by a few days of dry
weather, although the growing condi
lions may have been almost Ideal dur
ing the rest of the growing period.
Tliis critical period may occur at al
most any stage.
The ta. mt i plays a very Important
part in maintaining the proper bal

This requires rlose attention and
