The OECD provides a method to determine WHC. I have found that this is not transferable to "real" soils, and am investigating alternative methods. I would welcome advice about the OECD method or alternative methods from researchers.
@ Karen, you may go for Gypsum Block Methods or Tensiometric Methods.
Thank you for your answer. Would these methods measure the water holding capacity or just soil moisture?
Interesting discussion
It measure both water holding capacity as well as soil moisture level.
