The change of soil water content in crop root system is the basis for the designing of water-saving irrigation scheduling. In order to explore the dynamic changes of soil water content, our study carried out long-term monitoring on the soil content at different depths in a typical citrus orchard. In this concern, water contents, salinities, and nitrate concentrations were measured weakly and were compared with the model predictions. One of the important perspectives is the growth restricting factor in the soil water, yield, and fruit quality of citrus. Combined with the meteorological data, the changing characters of soil water content and its responses to evapotranspiration and precipitation during the whole growth period were investigated. And then the changing process of soil moisture was simulated through the soil water balance model. The results showed that during the whole growth period of the citrus, the soil water content buried at 40 cm depth had the best correlation with that in the main active layer of citrus root system (0–60 cm), between which the correlation coefficient reached 0.988. Therefore, the depth of 40 cm could be used as the representative depth of soil water content monitoring. Under the combined effects of precipitation and evapotranspiration, soil depth could influence the changing process of soil water content, of which the effect weakened with the increase in depth. The water balance model within 1-week timescale was appropriate to simulate the changing process of soil water content.
