EC in the root zone

The EC (Electrical Conductivity) of the drip and slab EC is important:

• to provide the right availabilty of nutrients for the plant;
• to control the uptake of water by the root system.
   

Please check the page on Delta EC to find out more about the relationship between drip and slab EC.

These slab EC figures in the Season Dynamics can only be guide figure as there are a tremendous range of EC levels used depentant on variety, rootstock etc. Please discuss with your crop consultant to get target figures.
