Solution(By Examveda Team)

Availability of soil water to plants is maximum at Field capacity.
Field capacity is the amount of soil moisture or water content held in the soil after excess water has drained away and the rate of downward movement has decreased. This usually takes place 2 - 3 days after rain or irrigation in previous soils of uniform structure and texture.
