Impacts of Converting Native Grassland into Arable Land and an Avocado Orchard on Soil Hydraulic Properties at an Experimental Farm in South Africa
The main objective of this study was to evaluate the changes in soil water retention curve (WRC) and pore size distribution in the 0–10, 10–20, and 20–30 cm layers following grassland conversion into arable land and an avocado orchard. Undisturbed soil cores were sampled using cylindrical metal core...
