Core Ideas Protocols and guidelines are presented for measuring and mapping the spatial variability of soil properties using apparent soil electrical conductivity (EC a ). The protocols focus on EC a –directed soil sampling. Mobile EC a equipment, protocols, guidelines, special considerations, data reliability, and strengths and limitations of EC a –directed soil sampling are presented. In this summary, we provide a brief overview of the chapter entitled “Field‐Scale Soil Electrical Conductivity”, recently published in the Methods of Soil Analysis (vol. 1) series.
