Abstract
The dependence of the dielectric properties of materials on other variables is discussed as it relates to agricultural products. Measurement techniques for determining dielectric properties of such materials are reviewed briefly, and graphical data are presented to illustrate the dependence of dielectric properties of some products on frequency, moisture content, temperature, and density. Several agricultural applications in which dielectric properties information is useful are discussed
