Question

The soil water readily available to the plants is
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Excess soil water or gravitational water

Explanation:

waters that drains or readity percolates below the active root zone by the force of gravity in this way the soil water readity available to the plants

Answer 2

Answer:

Capillary water

Explanation:

• Water occurs in the soil in the different forms as: free water, gravitational water, hygroscopic water chemically  combined  water  and capillary  water.  
• Free water is that water which runs away and is not held by the soil.
• Obviously it is not available to the plants.
• Gravitational water goes down into the deeper strata of earth and it is also, not available to the plants.
• Hygroscopic water  is  present  in  the  form  of  thin  films  around  the  soil particles and it is also not available to the plants under normal conditions but it may be available under adverse conditions.
• Chemically combined water is not available to the plants at all.
• The only water which is available to the plants is capillary water.
• Capillary water makes up about 75% of the total water available to plants.
• The rest of soil water (hygroscopic, combined, free, gravitational and 25% capillary water) are not available to plants.
• These are called echard or unavailable water.
