摘要

A novel sensor for the determination of moisture in agricultural produce which comprises a nonporous ceramic substrate characterised in that the said substrate having dielectric constant within 100, the said substrate being provided with a plurality of thick film planar electrodes of thickness in the range 20-30µm, width in the range of 1-2 mm and interelectrode gap in the range of 0.5-1.0 mm, the said planar electrodes being connected to two terminals in an alternate manner
