Abstract
The root design of crops in soils has a direct impact on yield potentials, which are controlled by soil moisture potential and its balancing components, because crops only benefit from transpiration sharing. The soil moisture potential, which governs the movement of soil moisture based on differential energy states, is a significant factor. In general, the kinetic energy of a soil moisture flow rate is too tiny to be taken into account. Due to its location in a force field that may help to increase water use efficiency, the corresponding potential energy of soil moisture is what defines its energy state. Significant irrigation water loss happens during flood irrigation through evaporation, seepage or drainage. On the other hand, tensiometer-based soil moisture potential delineation contributes significantly to irrigation water savings. Therefore, having greater yield potentials as well as improved lives in water-stressed regions of the world requires a proper understanding of soil moisture potentials, its components, and their relationship with soil water flow for reducing water footprints particularly of water stressed regions.
