ABSTRACT: Soil
degradation is a phenomenon of land subsidence caused by humans. The purpose of
this study was to determine the quantitative models of soil porosity. The
method used in this research was to measure ground resistance, and determine the value of soil resistivity. Soil
porosity was determined by determining the value of the soil volume weight,
density of particles, subsequently determined porosity value of land. Based on
the research, it has been found quantitative models for the relationship
between soil porosity and soil resistivity.
