Rothamsted Research Limited awarded a contract to ELE International Ltd for the supply of laboratory apparatus to measure the soil water release characteristic and a field penetrometer to measure soil strength.

The soil water release characteristic defines the soil's ability to store and transmit water, influencing drainage and crop water availability, while the penetrometer assesses soil strength down the profile, which can impede root growth and affect crop yields.

The contract value was AUD 63,113.9.
