Soil density meter, penetrometer Wile Soil, Ivano-Frankivsk region.

Wile Soil density meter (penetrometer) - a reliable device of Finnish production. It is intended for determining the density and resistance of the soil. Determines the depth of the plow sole and its thickness. The device works on all soils.
Efficiency of the application of the density meter:
The moisture permeability of the soil will increase (moisture will penetrate into deeper layers, and in dry periods it will give moisture to plants),
There will be no more stagnation of water on the surface of the field, and its evaporation (all water will be used by plants),(//tractor-service.com)
The saturation of the soil with mineralfertilizers will increase,
It will reduce the costs ofsoil processing (Deep loosening must be carried out only where the device has accurately determined this)
Simple and easy to use:
The density meter comes complete with two probes: 1.27 cm in diameter for measuring density in hard soil, and 1.91 cm in diameter for measuring density in soft soil.
The density scale is divided into colored segments. Red color - unfavorable growing conditions. Green - favorable growing conditions. Yellow - acceptable growing conditions
