This Engineering Practice provides the SI units of measurement associated with quantities useful in
describing all types of radiation for agricultural engineering applications. As an aid in establishing uniformity in
the agricultural engineering literature, it also provides the generally accepted symbols which represent those
quantities and the approved symbols for the units of the SI system applicable to those radiation quantities. The
principal customary units that have been used for radiation quantities are also listed and factors are provided
for conversion of those customary units to SI units.
