What the MP406 / MP306 Measure
The MP406 / MP306 Soil Moisture Sensors measure volumetric soil water content, helping users understand how much water is present in the soil and how that changes over time. Because soil moisture plays a critical role in plant production, irrigation timing, and root-zone management, dependable measurement is essential for both practical agriculture and scientific monitoring.
Using ADR technology, these sensors provide a reliable approach to long-term soil water content monitoring and can be calibrated to high accuracy where site-specific precision is required. They are suitable not only for standard agricultural soils, but also for more demanding environments such as saline soils, landfills, and mine sites. With a reinforced body and stainless-steel needles, the MP406 / MP306 are built for field durability while supporting consistent soil moisture measurement across extended deployment periods.
