Brazil develops digital equipment to measure soil permeability

Brazilian researchers have developed the country’s first automated digital permeameter, a device that measures the soil’s hydraulic conductivity and its ability to absorb and retain water. Named SoloFlux, the device was created through a partnership between EMBRAPA Solos and the private company Laborsolo. The technology enables real-time data collection, making soil permeability analysis more accurate and efficient. The information generated by …
