Abstract
Our knowledge of soil properties depend substantially on how this knowledge is obtained, i.e., how the soil interacts with the researcher's equipment in the course of measuring. The indices characterizing the average values o f the properties and their variation depend on the conditions of measuring. This must be taken into account when interpreting experimental data.
