A simple falling-head method is presented for the laboratory determination of saturated hydraulic conductivity of some forest soils of Ghana. Using the procedure, it wasfound that saturated hydraulic conductivity was positively and negatively correlated with sand con~ent and claycontent, respectively, both at P = 0.05 level. Further, thestatistical functional relationships between saturated hydraulic conductivity and sand content and clay content were best described by an exponential function, respectively.
