Volumetric Water Content (VWC): A numerical measure of soil moisture. It is the ratio of the volume of water to the unit volume of soil. It is expressed as a percentage.
Our capacitive dielectric sensors monitor VWC directly at the root zone. By knowing the precise VWC, farmers avoid triggering irrigation pumps blindly, saving up to 40% on annual water and electricity costs.
Discover how VarshaKrishi utilizes this technology in our offline-first systems across rural India.
