Join me, a soil scientist, as I delve into the classic educational film "Water Movement In Soils" (https://youtu.be/DmTNFIEc2VA). This video, produced by Washington State University in 1959, provides a foundational understanding of how water moves through different soil types, highlighting the roles of soil texture, structure, and layering.​

In my commentary, I explore key concepts such as capillary action, infiltration, and percolation, and discuss how these processes affect soil health and plant growth. I also examine the implications for modern soil management practices, including irrigation strategies and soil amendment techniques.​


Whether you're a student, educator, or fellow soil enthusiast, this discussion offers valuable insights into the dynamics of water movement in soils and their practical applications in agriculture and environmental management.​
