[en] An important question remains about PTF’s transposability to others agropedoclimatic contexts. Models developed and validated in a particular bioclimatic context, were relatively little tested in other contexts. The evaluation of PTF to estimate water retention at field capacity pF 2.5 (-330 hPa) and at wilting point pF 4.2 (-15000 hPa) of some soils of Lower Cheliff is presented.
